I just enhanced the mouse mode so if you hold the shift key down it will move the group having more atoms. This will be in tomorrow's ChimeraX daily build (dated March 17, 2023).</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Tom</div><div><br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Mar 16, 2023, at 9:39 AM, Raneem Akel via ChimeraX-users <chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta charset="UTF-8"><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Hello,<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">I am trying to adjust some bonds in my protein model, however, I want to also be able to control which segment of the protein I’m rotating (i.e. C-terminus vs N-terminus).
