Yes, that is correct. The histogram matching part of resolve density modification does not require model-building. However if you use build=true then some density modification steps will indeed use the model-based information as part of the density modification target.

Subject: [phenixbb] autosolve density modification question

Hi, a quick question: if when running autosolve on SAD data, if I set the parameter build = false, will that disable all model building, including any model building that would be a part of the density modification process? I'm especially curious about the case if build = false, but mask_type = histograms. I am currently assuming that the histogram matching does not use model building as part of it, and would like to know if this interpretation is correct.

Thanks,

Scott
