HKL or most probably SCALEPACK know nothing above point group if you do not tell it. But even in GUI one can use "hkl matrix" with the needed transformation matrix :-\ What is nice about it that it will never let you to change the handedness of the data, so anomalous signal is safe… FF Dr Felix Frolow Professor of Structural Biology and Biotechnology Department of Molecular Microbiology and Biotechnology Tel Aviv University 69978, Israel
