I think I've answered my own question: https://sourceforge.net/p/pymol/mailman/message/27824450/
Thanks a lot Jared! On 1 Sep 2016, at 9:47 AM, #YEO JINGJIE# <jy...@e.ntu.edu.sg<mailto:jy...@e.ntu.edu.sg>> wrote: Hi Jared, Thank you very much for your information. However, it seems that orient only changes the viewpoint, may I know whether it would possible to change the coordinates accordingly and save it into a pdb?

However, when combined with `turn<http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Turn>` or `rotate<http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Rotate>`, you can get the molecule aligned in whichever orientation you prefer. E.g: orient myprotein turn x, 90 turn y, -90 Hope that helps.
