Hello,

I want to align a molecule: I have a pdb file of tryptophan
and I want to put the aromatic ring in the xy-plane, the z-axis
is then perpendicular to the molecule.

Can I do this with VMD and how is it done? Or do you know another program
that can do this?

The alignment has to be accurate, so I cannot move it by mouse in the
xy-plane.

Thanks in advance,
Simon Schweizer
