I may be misunderstanding but this could relate to POV-Ray too. It seems Arie
is
doing some post-processing of Jmol-produced files to better center an object
and
you suggest maybe Jmol could do this on its own. Could this be added to
POV-Ray
output too? Making movies (rotating the molecule or zooming the camera around
in
any way other than directly towards the center) using the POV-Ray output from
Jmol is next to impossible as the objects aren't centered. It is quite easy
with
Deep View's direct POV-Ray output; I don't know about Pymol but I know Eran has
made eMovie for PyMol
