The lcaoCartoon command run on CO2 structure (spartan):

select @2
lcaoCartoon scale 2.0 color  [97 173 62]  translucent
lcaoCartoon create "sp2b"


creates a lobe that is collinear with the O-C-O axis (rather than about 
120 degrees from it).  "lonepair" creates similarly positioned pair of dots.

Is there a way to adjust that position to its "proper" angle?  I presume 
that the problem is common to all linear molecules. The sp3 lobes (or 
lone pairs) are created essentially in one plane (for example for 
fluorines in XeF2).

Any suggestions would be appreciated,

PM
