Dear Paul,
Thank you for your explanation. I will try to adapt my way of working to the 
new coot.
Best,
Herman

Dear Frustrated Coot 0.9 Users,

I'd like to let you know that you I have heard similar reports in the recent 
past (including, as you can see, from EJD). I have taken what I believe to be 
remedial action to address the most pressing issue.

I think the situation has arisen because Coot users are bringing previous 
experience of using RSR into their use of 0.9. Because the movement of the 
non-dragged atoms in 0.8.x was rather unsophisticated, many people learnt (I 
discovered, rather late in the day) to "flick" the dragged atom with a large 
and fast movement to get over a local energy barrier. (Needless to say, I 
hadn't intended for that to happen, the approved way to make such modifications 
was Ctrl-drag over-dragging.) Applying a large and fast flick to the dragged 
atom in
0.9 often leads to an undesired result. If one then misses that fact that an 
atom pull restraint is still in effect and goes on to drag on another atom, 
then confusion and frustration ensues.

For myself, by using eigen-flip and jiggle fit beforehand and then by combining 
pepflip, JED Flip and backrub rotamer during RSR I often don't even need to 
pull on the atoms. By adding in interactive contact dots, I can see what it is 
that's causing Coot to not move the atom to where I'm trying to drag it (the 
NBCs have been re-paramaterized and up-weighted in the 0.9.x rewrite). I have, 
from time to time in the past year, used Coot 0.8.x and to me it now feels 
painfully crippled. RSR in Coot 0.9.x is joyfully expeditious and pleasingly 
animated.

For now (which is to say, before Coot 0.9.1 is available) I suggest keeping an 
eye out for unsatisfied atom pull restraints, and using the "Clear Pull 
Restraints" at moments of confusion. Also, use less flick and more smoothness 
when dragging atoms. For example, a 180 degree rotation of the ribose from the 
Coot tutorial would be difficult, if not impossible using 0.8.x, but in 0.9.x 
one can pull on the hydrogen atom of the O5' 
to rotate it in a few seconds. I have added a (rather poor) video of me doing 
just that to my channel (I should make a better video).

With all that said, I am still listening - I will add a change shortly that 
will make the pull atom restraints more obvious by making them fatter, pinker 
and more opaque. If there are still problems and you could somehow make a 
screencast available to me that illustrates the problem, then I would be very 
interested to view it.

Regards,

Paul.
