For moving specific models only, it's analogous: you can add Ctrl to the assignment for "translate selected models" "move picked model" etc. to switch to Z-translation. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/ui.html#functions> Elaine

Hi Pranav, I guess you mean "Z-translation" ... it is a little awkward but done in ChimeraX by adding Ctrl to whatever button(s) you have assigned to XY-translation.
See the description of the "translate" function in the help: <https://mail.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/archives/list/chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu/...>
...and perhaps also this recent post on the mailing list <https://mail.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/archives/list/chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu/...>
I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Resource for Biocomputing, Visualization, and Informatics Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hi Team, Chimera used to have a really nice feature that allowed for a model to be pushed away or pulled towards the user. How do I access this feature in ChimeraX? Best, Pranav
