well, unless clicking changes the selection, that's intended. But I could
change that. You mean so that it is ONLY the atoms that are selected that
must be clicked on. Should be possible.

nasty. OK, I know what is going on here. There are a few parameters that
need setting. For now, use
set allowMoveAtoms
This will make it so that only the selected atoms move, not their entire
molecules. It also automatically sets dragSelected and allowRotateSelected.
When you turn off allowMoveAtoms, then you also turn off dragSelected and
allowRotateSelected.
I don't know if this is really what we want. I think the right combination
is probably
set allowMoveAtoms
set dragSelected false
set picking dragSelected
if the user has control over what they select (as with buttons, for
example).
I'm not totally happy with that, though. Way too complicated.
I'm almost done getting undo/redo fixed. That was a problem. After this, you
can use CTRL-Z to undo up to 100 moves and CTRL-SHIFT-Z or CTRL-Y to redo
them.
