If those were not enough options you can also rotate about a specific atom directly with the turn command<br>
<br>
turn y 45 center #1/A:253@CA<br>

> Or, if you want something more similar to Pymol and you often want to change the center of rotation, you can assign a mouse button to change the center of rotation to the atom that is clicked with that button. In the "Right Mouse" tab of Toolbar icons across
the top of the window, there is "set pivot" icon which looks like a red circle with an arrow going around it and a red dot in the middle. You can click that to assign the right mouse button to that function. The mouse-mode icons and their meanings are given
here.<br>
