Dear Weimin, The map files do not contain orientation information, so you can't simply save the map after rotating it. Instead you would need to make a new map by resampling the moved map onto the grid of the reference map with "vop resample" -- this is explained in the bottom section of this page, "Saving Maps After Fitting": <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/savemodel.html#afterfitting> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi, Does Chimera have a built-in function to save the map after it is fit into another map? The current save map could not save the new orientation and new location. Thanks, Weimin
