[Chimera-users] save map

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Weimin,
The map files do not contain orientation information, so you can't simply save the map after rotating it.  Instead you would need to make a new map by resampling the moved map onto the grid of the reference map with "vop resample" -- this is explained in the bottom section of this page, "Saving Maps After Fitting":

I hope this helps,
Elaine
