Subject: center command

Hi amber users,

I want to know if I use the center command in Leap the coordinates that
are given out are in which reference system? That of the space or that of
the object.
Say I do
>center foo
{39.2 34.5 45.7}
>translate foo {-39.2 34.5 45.7}

This should center the object (foo) in zero. However when I visualize the
structure in VMD it does not appear to be centered in zero.
Any commments on this issue would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Ioana
