1) I think the centre of rotation should be in the centre of the table,
not somewhere outside of it. This would prevent the table from floating
around unexpectedly, if it is rotated. It would also need less space for
rotation and could be larger initially, helping to see the element
symbols and the elements at the same time.
That was my initial thought as well.
I do not have a recommendation on how to fix this, but I do have an
explanation as to why it is happening:
If you click the button that says 'All radii' you will see that the table
actually has a stack of charged atoms in front of the periodic table. So
the center of rotation *is* in the middle of the atoms ... but by default
most of the atoms are hidden.
I didn't notice that because I didn't rotate it after clicking the "All
radii button.
Q: Wouldn't it help if the scripts behind the buttons would use the
"center" command to adjust the center?

Rolf
