That sounds correct > We also need to figure out what the center of rotation will be. How do you > think we should choose the point that is the center of rotation for the > entire set? I assume that when you mention the entire set you mean that all the molecules will be considered (rather than a specific one). In that case would it be reasonable to consider either a) the centroid of all the points (of all the molecules) or b) the center of the coordinate system that constitutes the current viewport ------------------------------------------------------------------- Rajarshi Guha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://jijo.cjb.net> GPG Fingerprint: 0CCA 8EE2 2EEB 25E2 AB04 06F7 1BB9 E634 9B87 56EE ------------------------------------------------------------------- If you don't get a good night kiss, you get Kafka dreams." -Hobbes ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
