I do think it would be great to have something like:

select atomno >=1 and atomno <=30
displace 2. 2. 2.


This type of function would have several repercussions. Among them:

- What happens to the scaling factor?

I would presume spacefills and bonds don't change size. But I don't know if that's an easy or difficult request.



- Do things get moved off the screen?

If the zoom isn't set as well, sure.

- What becomes the new center of rotation?

Stays "based on the same set of atoms" unless the "center" command is given as well.


 - What happens to the 'camera' for perspective depth calculations?


Again, no change in conditions for this -- recalculation necessary, presumably.


Some of these issues are the same ones that we need to address if/when we
talk about loading multiple models.

What happens if one does this ...

load someSmallMolecule
select atomno=1
displace 1000,0,0
zoom 100
