origin sets the center of rotation about a selection. If an object name is specified, it can be used to set the center of rotation for the object's TTT matrix.
USAGE
origin selection [, object [,position, [, state]]]
origin (selection)
origin position=[1.0,2.0,3.0]
PYMOL API
cmd.origin( string object-or-selection )
NOTES
- state = 0 (default) use all coordinate states
- state = -1 use only coordinates for the current state
- state > 0 use coordinates for a specific state

Example
This example puts the camera 'inside' a protein near the ligand and turns the camera 360 degrees about that location.
