Hi Folmer,

I'm not sure I understand this. Isn't it a matter of displaying density: compute all but show on graphics only what you want?

If you still want to compute density around selected atoms only then you can do it using phenix.maps:
http://phenix-online.org/documentation/phenix_maps.htm

see "atom_selection" keyword in map {...} scope of parameters. Of course you can do it in the GUI too.

Pavel.

Dear Pavel,
This would still yield "normal" density in the entire unit cell. It seems to me that Tjaard wants a map covering only the ligand (if I understand correctly).

Using my phone, so I can't comment on what phenix programs would be good.

Venlig hilsen
Folmer Fredslund
(and sorry for top posting)
