Re: [ccp4bb] To scale or not to scale: XDS_ASCII.HKL input to POINTLESS/AIMLESS

[Boaz Shaanan]

Hi, I actually choose the option 'constant' further down in the aimless gui but I guess the effect is similar to 'onlymege'.           Boaz     Boaz Shaanan, Ph.D.                                         Dept. of Life Sciences                                      Ben-Gurion University of the Negev                          Beer-Sheva 84105                                            Israel                                                                                                                  E-mail: bshaa...@bgu.ac.il Phone: 972-8-647-2220  Skype: boaz.shaanan                  Fax:   972-8-647-2992 or 972-8-646-1710                          From: CCP4 bulletin board [CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK] on behalf of wtempel [wtem...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2014 9:50 PM To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: [ccp4bb] To scale or not to scale: XDS_ASCII.HKL input to POINTLESS/AIMLESS Hello all, in a discussion on this board, Kay Diederichs questioned the effect of scaling data in AIMLESS after prior scaling in XDS (CORRECT). I understand that the available alternatives in this work flow are to specify the AIMLESS ‘onlymerge’ command, or not. Are there any arguments for the preference of one alternative over the other? Thank you for your insights, Wolfram Tempel ​
