[chimerax-users] undo/redo move?

[Oliver Clarke]

Thanks Elaine - yes I do that, it is very helpful. Original Chimera has an undo/redo move which works just fine with interactive movements - is this not possible to add in ChimeraX?

Cheers
Oli

However it seems like there is no undo/redo move functionality. I find myself using this a lot in Chimera, is there any possibility of incorporating this into Undo/Redo in ChimeraX? Basically adding the possibility to Undo/Redo translation, rotation and scaling?
