However, when I do the real-space-refine in Phenix, the CC-value during the run is really low (0.01) suggesting something is not properly done. I checked the header (using mrcfile) of the saved "centered" map and compared it to the original map and it is the same "0,0,0". Which means chimera did not update the header after centering.
