Sorry for the cross-posting, but it is apparent that a good number of Coot users are not on the Coot list. ---------- Release 0.6 o FEATURE: User-defined clicks [Joel Bard]. o FEATURE: SHELXL interfaces allows the user to modify the input before running the SHELXL executable [Tobias Beck]. o FEATURE: Now compatible with Zalman M220W. o FEATURE: Post-manipulation function hook added [JED]. o FEATURE: "Sphere" (residue selection) refinement. o FEATURE: function to (re-)calculate probe dots around a give point [Joel Bard]. o FEATURE: monomer and residue selection dipoles. o FEATURE: Interactive map sharpening [Randy Read, Alex Brunger]. o FEATURE: LINK bonds are are now represented. o FEATURE: "Backrub rotamers" at low (2.7 or worse) resolution. o FEATURE: Baton build parameters (e.g. "backwards") now have a GUI [Phil Evans]. o FEATURE: Move waters to surround protein [Garib Murshudov] o FEATURE: rotate/translate zone by residue ranges o FEATURE: Rigid-body fit by residue ranges. o FEATURE: Multi-select on reading coordinates is enabled. o FEATURE: Immediate access to coordinates from CIF dictionaries that contain coordinates (no need for LIBCHECK in such cases). o FEATURE: Nudge-residue (bound to Ctrl-arrow keys). o FEATURE: A dialog has been added from map averaging [Bob Nolte]. o FEATURE: Rename residue [Alexander Schiffer]. o CHANGE: partial charges added to electrostatic surface calculation. o CHANGE: shift-click and ctrl-click in the file selectors now work for reading in several coordinates files [Roberto Steiner]. o CHANGE: SEGIDs are more intelligently inherited [Steven Sheriff, Bob Nolte]. o CHANGE: Transformed make take the cell and symmetry of the reference coordinates. o CHANGE: Transformed maps take on the cell and spacegroup of the reference coordinates. o CHANGE: Coordinates Molecules transformed by LSQ take on the cell and spacegroup of the reference coordinates. o CHANGE: Pukka-puckers? fixed and re-enabled. o CHANGE: Ramachandran Plots now have molecule name labels [Wendy Offen]. o CHANGE: The save coordinates dialogs active item is the first molecule with unsaved changes (rather than simply the first molecule) [Herb Klei] o CHANGE: "Go To Blob" now goes to the front blob, no matter what the density level of blobs/density behind it is [JED]. o CHANGE: Don't display the geometry distance if the molecule corresponding to the start or end point is not displayed [JED]. o CHANGE: Using the internal alignment, the weights of the affine gap penalty have been changed to favour mutations and larger gaps rather than several small gaps. o CHANGE: the restraints editor now uses strings (positive/negative/both) rather than number to represent the sign for chiral volumes [Andrew Leslie] o CHANGE: the restraints editor now adds a new entry to the dictionary when the comp-id is changed. o CHANGE: Additional representations now have an "All off" button. o CHANGE: Chi angles rotation now include a "reverse fragment" option. o CHANGE: "Add strand here" moved next to "Add Helix Here". o CHANGE: Convert PDB format 3.x prime atom names to star names (to correspond to current Refmac dictionary). o BUG-FIX: TER records are removed on addition of waters [Herb Klei]. o BUG-FIX: Align vs PIR file improved [Bob Nolte] o BUG-FIX: Single HETATMs now are refined by rigid body (as waters are) when using Refine Zone. o BUG-FIX: new atoms (and waters) are added as HETATMs if appropriate [David Mathog]. o BUG-FIX: TER records for water chains are no longer tested in water validation tests [Herb Klei]. o BUG-FIX: NCS chain jumping now works on heterodimers [Jianghai Zhu]. o BUG-FIX: The Chain Reordering function in Extensions has been fixed. o BUG-FIX: Torsion angle refinement convergence improved [JED]. o BUG-FIX: Ramachandran Green spot no longer disappears on refinement. o BUG-FIX: Limit the sequence view canvas X parameters, so that we don't get X11 errors and crash [Felix Frolow]. o BUG-FIX: Additional representations appear in both "eyes" in side-by-side mode. o BUG-FIX: Delete-atom spewing binary fixed [JED].
