Hello Gabriel,

Your Questions:

1. How can you make a molecule rotate 10 times only,

go to http://www.rubor.de/bioinf and download the movieScript module
and issue the following commands:

mvClear
mvRot 1-500,x,3600
mvCmd 501,mstop
movie

Explanation:
This tells movieScript to rotate the molecule in frames 1 to 500 around 3600 degrees, then calls the mstop command in frame 501.


2. Is there any script command, that put the script on
"hold" until you press the mouse or the keyboard
button ? This is useful for multi-step movie.

I think this should be done using the raw_input("press any key")
function from a python script.


3. Is there any possibility to do zoom-in , for
example, into the active site.

of course, there is (e.G. 'actsite' is your active site subselection):

hide all         # molecule gets invisible
orient actsite   # now the active site fills out all the screen
move z,-200      # zoom out
move x,50        # move a little to the side

# Now your molecule is ready to come to the scene:
show cartoon    # make the molecule visible
mvClear
mvSinmove 1-100,x,-50
mvSinmove 1-100,z,200
mvCmd 101,mstop
movie

best wishes,

  Kristian Rother
