Hi Luca, Tristan is right of course, see "view" and its "cofr" option: <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/view.html#initial> I just wanted to add that there's an icon to do this in a single click, in the Graphics tab of the toolbar: <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/graphics.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi,

What is the ChimeraX equivalent to the Focus command in Chimera? I have selected a portion of a structure, and would like to bring it into focus without dragging it into view. Also Focus would automatically set the selection as the pivot point.

Best wishes, Luca
