I'm trying to align all conformers of 2 molecules (and keep the best ones)
using the python api by following some of the tutorials:
http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/greglandrum/4316435/Working%20in%203D.ipynb
http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/greglandrum/rdkit_blog/blob/master/notebooks/Using%20ConstrainedEmbed.ipynb
However whatever I try the alignment is considerably different than the one
created using the Open 3D alignment node in Knime.
Currently the issue is that the molecules do not seem to be aligned properly.
There is some sort of small shift. See code below.
Best Regards,
Thomas
