Hi all, Would it be possible in a future coot version for superpose and lsq_match to return the rotation matrix and translation vector when called? At the moment these are output to the console, but this makes them difficult to access from the scripting interface for further manipulation.
The reason I ask is because I would like a quick way to align two maps (e.g. two crystal forms of the same molecule). ‘Transform map by LSQ model fit’ works, but it has certain limitations - I would rather get the rotation matrix and translation vector from an SSM match between two selected molecules, but at the moment I don’t see an easy way to do that (because I can’t access the rotation matrix calculated by superpose). Best, Oliver.
