Sorry Elaine, thank you select# 2:6-121.A,7-103.B,6-103.C works. Thanks again Jürgen 2013/9/12 Elaine Meng <meng@cgl.ucsf.edu>

Hi Juergen, Not sure I understand the whole question, but to make the selection you could use command:

select :6-121.a,7-103.b,6-103.c

(with no space after commas) < http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/frameatom_spec.html

...

and then to move only the selection with mouse you could use Movement Mouse Mode (in menu under Tools… Movement) with option "Move selection." < http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/movemode/movemode....

I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Computer Graphics Lab (Chimera team) and Babbitt Lab Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hallo, how can I move a domain consisting of 3 chains using mouse mode/ move selection? I will use chain A: 6-121, chainB: 7-103, Chain C: 6-103. The selection by command line takes always the longest number 121 for all three chains - A:6-121, B:7-121, C:6-121. Greetings, Jürgen
