Hi Tom, I mean to do the former (rotate models together each about their own centre using a mouse/trackpad), i.e. so one could compare different maps of the same structure simultaneously from the same view. Basically, if the 'set independent’ function from old Chimera could be ported to ChimeraX – it would be a significant facilitation for structural biologists. Thank you!

The ChimeraX mouse mode does not support it. But you can record a movie with a command file spin.cxc like this: movie record turn y 1 360 model #1 turn y 1 360 model #2 turn y 1 360 model #3 turn y 1 360 model #4 wait 360 movie encode spin.mp4 Tom On Jun 10, 2021, at 1:24 PM, Shahid, Taha (Dr.) via ChimeraX-users <chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu<mailto:chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu>> wrote: Hi, Is there a method, even if an indirect one via a long command or a series of commands, to set independent rotation centres for a series of (cryo-EM) maps that would then turn together. This could be easily achieved by 'set independent' in the original Chimera, and is much missed by our group of structural biologists. Kudos otherwise on a wonderful upgrade to the program.
