[Chimera-users] bond rotation buglet

[Eric Pettersen]

I just found out that the current release has a bug where it  
sometimes claims that a bond is terminal (and therefore won't let you  
rotate it) when it isn't.  This occurs when there is already an  
active bond rotation adjacent to the desired new rotation, and the  
atom in common would have all its bonds in rotations.  You can work  
around the problem by deactivating the other rotation (in the panel  
showing the rotations, click on the label for the rotation (under  
"Bond") which brings up a menu of actions, one of which is  
Deactivate).  I also have a code fix that I could send to people that  
need it -- just drop me an email.
