Hi Pymol-users,
apparently no one has asked this question before or I wasn't able to
find it in the archive:
I would like to display all molecules of a crystal structure which lie
within one unit-cell.
I do know how to display the cell and how to display symmetry-mates, but
how do I tell Pymol to cut away everything outside a certain volume
("symexp [bla, bla,] radius" does not do it apparently), i.e. the
unit-cell itself?
So what I want is simply spoken to display a brick of xtal the size and
shape of the unitcell with all atoms inside, but none outside.
Is that possible?
I have tried to remove parts manually after adding symmetrie-mates, but
this is painfull for very large structures (I have one with a 700
A-axis...).
Thanks in advance!
