Hi Alexis, I made a feature request for adding the "bring" option to the align command. https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/trac/ChimeraX/ticket/18376 Tom

Thanks Tom!
I think my brain once held that piece of information (perhaps before "bring" existed as an option), but I had definitely forgotten about it. This does exactly what I need it to. Thank you for telling me about it (again?).
(I still think "bring" would be nice with "align")
Cheers, Alexis

Hi Alexis,
Did you know the "view position" command can move models to have the same positioning as another model?
view position #2 sameAs #1
will update the placement of model #2 to match the position and orientation of model #1. My match the position and orientation I mean that if model #1 has been rotated and translated a certain amount relative to its initial position (by any means) the this command will rotate and translate model #2 by the same amount relative to model #2's initial position.

Hello,
I really love (and depend on) the "bring" option to the "matchmaker" command.
Occasionally though, I have to fall back on "align" when I need to specify atoms that should be superposed. Would you please consider adding a "bring" option to the "align" command?
