[phenixbb] Are TLS parameters applied when TLS refinement is OFF?

[Mark Saper]

Pavel,

Even when I turn off TLS refinement, the definition for TLS parameters is still there in the .eff effective parameter file.  So I think it's still being applied.  It’s confusing.

Optionally, it can use ANISOU (which includes TLS contribution). At 1.35A is probably what it just does by default. At lower resolution it would convert anisotropic ADPs to isotropic.
