[Chimera-users] rotating items in chimera

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Jeff,
It's not a bug.
You would need to specify the selected atom as the argument to  
"cofr", for example:

cofr sel

If you type only "cofr" without arguments it merely reports the  
location of the current center of rotation and doesn't change it.
