Perhaps I'm missing something but couldn't this appearance be done by having two models which are positioned independently while one or the other is invisible and then the two are faded out/in simultaneously? Since Frieda is pre-determining the views and which parts to include it seems that all of this would work. I can see that having the user move things around and then ask for "focus" on some portion of the molecule would cause problems. But...
