[Chimera-users] H bonds

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Kloe,
Both of these things I told you before.

(1) Chimera does not calculate stability values;  you have to use your own chemical intuition.

(2) The tutorial I recommended in the previous reply includes an example of calculating only the H-bonds to the ligand.
