Hello everyone

>From the visualization state, I got the following matrix for changing the
position of a molecule.

set viewpoints([molinfo top]) {{{1 0 0 -119.535} {0 1 0 -144.59} {0 0 1
-132.454} {0 0 0 1}} {{-0.409795 -0.495426 0.765888 0} {0.679365 0.394516
0.618708 0} {-0.608684 0.773872 0.174909 0} {0 0 0 1}} {{0.0305694 0 0 0}
{0 0.0305694 0 0} {0 0 0.0305694 0} {0 0 0 1}} {{1 0 0 0} {0 1 0 0} {0 0 1
0} {0 0 0 1}}}

However, after applying the three matrices successively (since the fourth
matrix is redundant and doesn't make any difference anyway after
application), all the coordinates were reduced to almost insignificant
decimal values.

I tried using the "Save coordinates" option to save the molecule position
after loading the visualization state but it didn't make any difference.
The "measure fit" command returned an identity matrix too.

Please suggest how to proceed with this issue.
