This option is a great improvement to the utility of ChimeraX. But one problem with this implementation is that panning using the middle-mouse button no longer works. It should be possible to "click-and-hold" differently from a plain "click" and thereby retain the panning functionality. If you make that change, I think this should be the default behavior of the application, as middle-click currently does nothing. Another option use "double left-click" for this, as this is not currently used in the GUI and double-click works better on a track-pad. Actually, it would be nice to have the ability to set the action for double-clicking in a menu similar to the current "right mouse" menu and to set the default option in a preference file.

The ChimeraX 1.7 release out near the end of this year will have it too. To make ChimeraX always start with this muse mode enter the command in the under "Execute these commands at startup" in the Startup tab of the ChimeraX Preferences panel and press the Save button on that panel.

Hi,
I do not know if this is possible already (I could not find it), but is there a way in ChimeraX to set the middle click mouse button (or any other button) to center and orient the atom you click? Similar to what happens on PyMOL by default. This helps so much when navigating around a structure. I know you can do it in some other way, but it takes more time and it is not so user-friendly. If there is no way to do this, could it be implemented?
Many thanks!
Best, Adrián
