I downloaded 11.7.33 but unfortunately I can't get the rotation to work. I can translate the atoms as you describe but can't rotate them.<br> <br> Also, is it possible to change the point the atoms rotate around? The kind of thing I want to do is rotate a group around the atom it is attached to.<br> <br> Thanks again,<br> Chris.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Robert Hanson wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:ba9...@ma..." type="cite">It's in there, at least for Jmol 11.7.
