Dear ChimeraX team, I have a question regarding the placement of markers. I am currently trying to extract densities from cryo-EM maps for figure preparation. Therefore, I am using markers to colour any density that is not part of what I want to extract and then split the map accordingly. I noticed that when I translate a markerset, e. g. by using "view position" with "sameAsModels", new markers are not placed at the cursor position, but instead are transformed according to the translation of the whole markerset. Therefore, to move markers, I have to use the "move marker" command on each marker separately. I would like to know if this behaviour is intented and if it can be switched somehow to place markers at the cursorposition even after translation of the markerset. Ultimately, I would like to re-use defined markersets for extracting (or "cleaning") the same invariant components of my maps. But the current behaviour makes it nearly impossible to add new markers for touch-ups after opening and aligning a markerset. Best, Helge
