how about this: 1. open the Jmol Console (from the Jmol menu). 2. use the mouse to position the molecule exactly as you desire. 3. in the Jmol Console, issue the command: show orientation. 4. copy and paste the 'moveto' part of the response to 3 in your script. the moveto will move the molecule from any position to the position defined in 2 using a smooth motion. hope that helps, tim -- Timothy Driscoll em: [EMAIL PROTECTED] molvisions - see. grasp. learn. ph: 919-368-2667 <http://www.molvisions.com/> im: molvisions usa:virginia:blacksburg tx: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Be water, my friend." _______________________________________________ Jmol-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-users
