[chimerax-users] no conformation comparison category in ChimeraX1.5 and ChimeraX-daily

[Jiang Xu]

Hello Elain,
 Thanks for your explanation. I am able to create the movie now. I then
have two new questions:
1.Following the morph command, I found an arginine residue rotate in a
direction that caused clashes with a neighbouring residue in the movement,
before moving to the final unclashed position. So is there any way to
control the movement direction of the side chain to avoid possible clashes?
2. Now I have the morph trajectory, I also want to have the camera rotate
as the structure moves at the same time. Is it possible?
Thank you,
Best,
Jiang
