Paul,

I see the same thing. If I gently rotate a fragment, I can see that it's 
translating as I rotate it. No matter which way I rotate, the translation is 
always in the same direction - toward infinity. As you say, this behavior is 
initiated by the rotate compare command.

I've just made another try, with the same structure. Everything worked fine (I 
could translate or rotate all molecules in every direction, and rotating with 
the cursor outside an atom just moved the entire scene). But once I clicked on 
the left column link with the "rotate compare" command, the following rotation 
move triggered the molecule take off to infinity and beyond (translation works 
fine though).I tried to run a "set picking ident" command and then switch back 
to "set picking dragmolecule", but the same behavior remained.

I think that behavior has been there all along. On
the rotation, you must start with the cursor on an atom. Once you start
the rotation, you can move the mouse cursor away from the model, but it
must start on an atom. If you do not start on an atom, ZOOOOOOM takes
over. ZOOOOOM into deep space!

I assume that that initial hover or click (not sure which) is
selecting the connected branch (model in this case) for rotation. I
never saw this as a bug, but maybe it is.
