Rotate

DESCRIPTION

  "rotate" can be used to rotate the atomic coordinates of a
  molecular object.  Behavior differs depending on whether or not the
  "object" parameter is specified.

  If object is None, then rotate rotates the atomic coordinates
  according to the axes and angle for the selection and state
  provided.  All representation geometries will need to be
  regenerated to reflect the new atomic coordinates.

  If object is set to an object name, then selection and state are
  ignored and instead of translating the atomic coordinates, the
  object's representation display matrix is modified.  This option
  is for use in animations only.

USAGE

  rotate axis, angle [,selection [,state [,camera [,object [,origin]]]]]

PYMOL API

   cmd.rotate(list-or-string axis, string selection = "all", int state = 0,
              int camera = 1, string object = None)

EXAMPLES

  rotate x, 45, pept

NOTES

  if state = 0, then only visible state(s) are affected.
  if state = -1, then all states are affected.
