Would it be possible to load multiple molecules and assign them ID's at load time. Then a menu could provide a list of ID's from which the user could select. The molecule with the selected ID would then be the one in 'focus' and any rotate, translate operations would be carried out on that one. I'm not sure how this would translate in terms of coordinate systems for the individual molecules (each molecule having its own world coordinate?) or whether this doable :-/ But it would be very nice :) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Rajarshi Guha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://jijo.cjb.net> GPG Fingerprint: 0CCA 8EE2 2EEB 25E2 AB04 06F7 1BB9 E634 9B87 56EE ------------------------------------------------------------------- All the passions make us commit faults; love makes us commit the most ridiculous ones. -- La Rochefoucauld ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
