Hi Oliver, Not exactly -- the closest thing I can think of is ChimeraX command "view matrix" but then you'd have to figure it out by comparing the camera matrices given for the two views, if that's even possible. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/view.html#matrix> When I make figures that differ by N-degree rotation I have to just save one view, then use a command to make that exact rotation, and then save another view before saving the session. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hi, In either Chimera or X, is there a way to obtain the orientational relationship between two views?
E.g. if I have two views saved, I would like to be able to say "view 1 is related to view 2 by a 45deg rotation about X and a 25deg rotation about Y" - this would be very useful for figure making/writing purposes. Does this exist?
Cheers Oli
