I am trying to make a quite classic demonstration of electron density map sliced and contoured as (smoothed) isoheight curves. The sliced section is random and NOT along any main cell axes. I am curious if there is any crystallographic software can handle this, which will save me from writing and debugging codes. Thanks a lot!
when i was a lad i wrote a script that does something like this (namely: plot (projected) density from a skewed plane defined by three atoms) using a bunch of different (USF) programs (mama, moleman, lsqman, mave, mapman, o2d). the script is called plane_extract.csh and lives in the OMAC directory on the USF website. it is reasonably annotated and if you are familiar with the programs it uses you can probably adapt it to fit your needs.
