Hi,

I just rendered a scene where I moved some atom labels next to the VDW
representation so they are visible.

Rendering the scene with POVRAY resets the label positions to their default
position.

I tried with Tachyon, but Tachyon seems to be broken on my system, but any
way, tachyon wouldn't be an option since it cant produce transparent
background, or can it?

This is the tachyon error:

detail.dat' ...
