Your map obviously isn’t a unit cell because it isn’t periodic. The documentation says vop cover can use the symmetries defined in a CCP4 or MRC file and the default is to use those symmetries, in which case the map does not need to be a unit cell map. But apparently your map does not contain those symmetries. If you used File / Fetch by ID / EDS 3CH3 this gives a map in O format, not CCP4 or MRC. I tried downloading a CCP4 format map from the Electron Density Server and it also did not contain the crystal symmetries as shown in the PDB 3CH3. There is no vop cover option to use the symmetries defined in the PDB atomic model to extend the map. So if you don’t have a unit cell map or a CCP4 map containing the crystal symmetries in the header then vop cover won’t help you.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Tom</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 5, 2015, at 8:10 AM, Oliver Clarke wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi all, I would like to use the command ‘vop cover’ (<a href="https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/vop.html#cover" class="">https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/vop.html#cover</a>) with option fbox so that I can easily extend 2fo-fc maps downloaded from the EDS using ‘Fetch by ID’ to cover multiple unit cells. <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">At the moment, this command does not seem to respect the lattice symmetry of the input map (see attached) - is there any way to make it do so?
