<p>Hi Pat,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I believe they suggest using target weight optimization in this case. It can be specified on the command line as below:</p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt">optimize_xyz_weight=true optimize_adp_weight=true</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt">I've found for a couple structures I had to use this or else the geometry was much worse. They also
</span>recommend<span style="font-size:12pt"> to use this in the last round of refinement.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt">Cheers,</span></p>

<div class="PlainText">Hi Pavel,<br>
<br>
I agree that the differences in the R values are not large, but I found the geometry differences compelling (RMS bonds/angles can be either 0.005 �/0.9 deg or 0.008 �/1.4 deg).<br>
<br>
I�m glad to hear the strategies may change based on macrocycle number (otherwise I�d question my understanding of refinement). Is there any way a user can change influence this choice of strategy? Given two models with essentially equivalent R values, I�d prefer
the one with nicer geometry.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

job (?!). This doesn�t make sense to me; if you�re starting from the exact same coordinates, shouldn�t the first macrocycle always wind up at the same place, regardless of whether or not the program goes on to do additional macrocycles of refinement?<br>
