Hi Thomas, Say, the first system is x and the second y, where y=R(x+s) is the first transformation. Then the reverse transformation follows as
y = R(x + s) y = Rx + Rs Rx = y - Rs x = t(R)(y-Rs) Note that that is also equal to: x = t(R)y - s Hope it helps, Tsjerk On Mon, Nov 9, 2009 at 1:09 AM, Thomas Evangelidis <te8...@mbg.duth.gr> wrote: > Dear pymol users, > > I noticed something strange when superimposing 2 opposite pairs of > chains.
