[Chimera-users] saving map in different position

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Gabor,
The "matrixget" command writes the current transformation matrix for 
each model to a file:
http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/matrixset.html

The matrices for all open models are written to a single file, and they 
describe the absolute transformations (there is no option to write the 
transformation of one model relative to another).
I hope this helps,
Elaine
