Thanks for the reply Robert. I downloaded 11.7.33 but unfortunately I
can't get the rotation to work. I can translate the atoms as you
describe but can't rotate them.
Also, is it possible to change the point the atoms rotate around? The
kind of thing I want to do is rotate a group around the atom it is
attached to.
Thanks again,
Chris.

30. selective atom rotation and translation
# Using set dragSelected in Jmol 11.7.25 you can move selected atoms
around, translating them with ALT-SHIFT-LEFT mouse and rotating them
around their geometric center using ALT-LEFT or CTRL-ALT-RIGHT.
Selection halos are automatically turned on during mouse-drag actions.
(Still a few bugs there....)
load caffeine.xyz;load append water.xyz;frame 0;select
2.1;selectionHalos on
set dragSelected !dragSelected

Hi
Jmol users,
I would like to be rotate the selected atoms with the mouse.
The rotateSelected command is almost perfect... but only works via
scripting, not mouse interaction.
The "allowrotateselected = true" setting is also close but rotates the
entire molecule, not just the selected atoms.
I was wondering (hoping) if I've missed something that would let me set
this up quickly and easily. If not, no worries. I can write a small Java
application that will do the job.
Cheers,
Chris Foley.
