I have always attributed this to the axes orientation. if I send the same move command to Jmol 10b move 0 0 0 0 0 -50 0 0 2 it also moves the molecule up. I assume this is because Jmol is mimicking the Chime axis system. if the Y axis is 'flipped' in Jmol, the same move command would now move the molecule down (which seems more logical to me). is this true? have I strayed far afield here? or is this completely unrelated? :-) regards, :tim -- timothy driscoll molvisions - molecular graphics & visualization <http://www.molvisions.com/> usa:north carolina:wake forest ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
