Not easily, I think. But it was extremely easy to modify the atom
selection code to support a "bfactor" keyword, which has been on the todo
list since as long as I can remember. Starting tomorrow (or whenever the
next usable build is), syntax like this will be possible:
bfactor < 20
chain A and bfactor > 20
(resname HOH) and (bfactor = 0)
Only ">", "<", and "=" are supported as operators right now (but keep in
mind "not (bfactor = 0)" is also possible). So in the phenix.refine GUI,
the atom selections for anisotropic and isotropic could be set this way.
Just make sure they don't overlap.
