In February, 2019, Proteopedia's mechanism is somewhat limited. The animations are jerky and will perhaps be smaller than you wish. An alternative is to make an animation of a Proteopedia scene using [[FirstGlance in Jmol]].

Making presentation-ready animations in FirstGlance in Jmol version 2.7 (released January 8, 2018) is easy, and the animations will rotate more smoothly and can be larger (hence clearer/sharper).

If you want to animate a molecular scene that you first obtain in FirstGlance in Jmol, then you don't need the methods below. The capability is built into FirstGlance: see the snapshot in step #7 below (in Method I). The methods below are only for generating an animation in FirstGlance from a scene in Proteopedia.
