Hello,

I have used the old Chimera quite a bit and I'm trying to get used to 
ChimeraX. There are a couple of tools that I found very useful in the 
old chimera: "focus" and "set pivot". Both were under the "Actions" menu 
and, with large structures like the ribosome, these two tools allowed me 
to quickly inspect any residues that were selected with any other tools. 
"Focus" is not there anymore and while "set pivot" is, it doesn´t seem 
to work as it used to. I wonder if these tools, in their old flavors, 
are still available in ChimeraX.

best,

Antón
