Dean, There are two coordinate systems -- that of the molecule and that of the reference frame. Is what you are asking to do to align some axis in the molecular system with some axis in the reference plane? In other words, something like "orient the axis going through atoms 1 and 2 along the X (horizontal) axis"?
