Hi Pavel,

Did you get my files?  and any news? Thanks.

From what I recall I'm guessing that this is because the rigid-body procedure has internal check that makes sure the shifts applied to the model during refinement result in reduced R-factor computed for all reflections. If this check fails then the shifted coordinates are re-set to the starting ones (so you get the same model in the end).
