Hi Francois,
Not a dumb question, but sorry, there is no “tile” equivalent in ChimeraX currently.  If you don’t have too many structures, you could first superimpose them all in the middle, zoom out somewhat (“zoom” command) and then translate them individually up/down (y axis) and left/right (x axis) with the “move” command, but it would be a little tedious and require some trial and error as to spacing.  It may be useful to save/restore positions with the “view” command.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
