Hi Buz,

You can use "center" as a selection name for input with zoom, along with a
distance value.

zoom center, distance

e.g.

# first, get the object you want in the center of the screen

orient

# then zoom the viewer by a fixed amount about the center point

zoom center, 10

# you may also wish to move the clipping planes in/out to avoid cutting into
any of the molecular representations:

clip atoms, 4, selection=all

# also, depending upon the application, you might want to disable
perspective

set orthoscopic

# get rid of background pixels

unset opaque_background

# render

ray

# and save

save struct001.png

Cheers,
Warren
