This is another point (in a long list of points) in favor of using Chimera.</div><div><br></div><div>Is there a plan to be able to display ellipsoid axis or octants as in ortep type renderings. This would be extremely useful in small molecule work. I've been using Chimera as an alternate when reporting structures in my lab and it has been very well received. The first question asked when I distributed a report today was about the axis and/or octants.</div><div><br></div><div>Great work.
