[chimerax-users] Matrixset equivalent

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Reza,
The ChimeraX “view matrix” command allows setting camera or model positions using matrices, see:

<http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/view.html#matrix>

The matrix format is different than in Chimera, however, and entered in the command rather than read from a file.  Command “view matrix” without any arguments reports the current matrices in the Log with the same format as required for input.

There is also “view position” to apply the transformation of one model to another (like Chimera’s matrixcopy).

<http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/view.html#position>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
