Hi, Make sure your mouse mode is set to 3-button editing mode !
*How to move stuff around in PyMOL?* To move molecules around one have to activate 3-button editing mouse mode. Easiest way to do it is to click on "Mouse Mode - 3-Button Viewing" in the lower right corner of the main window. Then you will be able to move single molecule while holding down *shift* key: - left mouse button rotates molecule - middle mouse button moves molecule - right mouse button moves molecule closer or farther source: http://www-cryst.bioc.cam.ac.uk/members/zbyszek/figures_pymol Cheers, Rajesh.
