Thanks for the information. I have the "plot.pov" file but the problem I
have now is that the povray coordinates are not the coordinates in the
molecular frame from the pdb file. Can I generate a povray file in the
same coordinates or is there a way to transform the molecular coordinates
into the povray frame?
Thanks,
Gabriela
