    Hi Charles,<br>
    <br>
    you are right: setting very low esd is not good, and setting it to
    zero will disable the restraint completely.<br>

            and result in a sub-optimal structure, because those
            restraints will dominate the target and gradients, forcing

                        <div>But, after refinement, this angle can be
                          close to 90 or even 120. Even worse is that
                          the fitting at such angles are not better than
                          at -60/60 angle.</div>
                        <div><br>
