Warren,

 I am trying to make these changes automatically.  Essentially, I would
like to have a script to make a movie where;

First, I want to load pdb files that contain four molecules (A, A, B, and
B).   Initially, I what to hide all four molecules.  Then show the dimer AA
in the center of the screen.  Have this dimer rotate around X.  Then show a
conformational change in this dimer where you hold one of the molecules (A)
stationary, while you rotate the other molecule A in X by 100 degrees.
After this is done, I then want to show one molecules of B on the left side
and the other molecule B on the right side of the dimer of AA.  Finally I
want to show the molecule B's moving and docking with the dimer (AA) in its
new conformation.

Also, is it posible to make this movie showing electrostatic surface?

Les
