Calculate center of mass or average of all coordinates calculate vector from that to point of interest rotate view so that vector points toward front/camera translate so point of interest is centerd maybe reverse the last two steps? > Cheers, > > -- Jason > > > On Sun, Oct 7, 2012 at 10:04 AM, Troels Emtekær Linnet > <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi pymolers. >> >> I am generating a list of residue ID's from some calculations. >> Now I want to make a little script that select the residue and sticks it >> and then zoom and make .png file. >> >> How do I make sure that the zoom, is viewed from "outside" the protein for >> each residue/.png file? >> >> Best >> >> Troels Emtekær Linnet >> Ved kløvermarken 9, 1.th >> 2300 København S >> Mobil: +45 60210234 >> >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
