After a few trials, looks like the angles_rmsd_max cannot be set to a value lower than 1.0.  Everytime I did that, the values for bonds_rmsd_max and angles_rmsd_max reverted to the default numbers in the refinement and the limits I set in the input file are not effective.  How do I fix that?  Thanks.

Can you really see that level of details at say 2.5A resolution and lower? I guess at that resolutions they should be both zero. In contrast, at higher resolution larger deviations are justified just by the data and so larger margins in restraints should be allowed. I know there is a heap of good papers on this matter, including the recent ones, and there are long threads on bb, but to me this question is still somewhat open. May be someone on the board can thoroughly/convincingly comment on this, summarizing all previous discussions?
