Hello

Thank you for your response.

You’re right, I shouldn’t need to use |phenix.map_box|. I tried it as an attempt to make the map cover the selected region since the map’s origin does not cover the protein properly. The issue is that in PyMOL, the map appears misaligned, meaning that the density box has another origin than the model, and it doesn't align with the asymmetric unit of the protein. In Coot, however, the map loads and aligns perfectly with the PDB.

Here is an image showing how the event map looks in Coot (properly aligned):



And here is an image showing how the map looks in PyMOL, following the instructions on  'displaying CCP4 maps':


And this is how it looks like when I try to 'force' to cover the protein, selecting all the protein as 'sele' and setting: PyMOL>isomesh map2, Entry-A12A-event_1_1-BDC_0.24_map.native, 1, sele.


I haven’t yet used ChimeraX, but I am open to trying it if it helps with map representation


It seems to me that your putting in a lot of effort to not use Coot. Why not just use Coot?

As noted recently, Coot 1.1 is quite good at graphics now, see for example Catapano et al. (2023)

or Moorhen (moorhen.org) - that's good at graphics too.

Paul.
