Perhaps not the correct audience, if not, please excuse me...

I have a question about Coot. We have started to use it since about 10 days and are more or less impressed with it. We are trying to build missing amino acids in a partial structure. We skeletonized the map and tried to use baton building to get positions for C-alpha atoms, even though this is not the best way to go, we know where we want to put the C-alpha's, but using batons is the only way I could figure out how to put the atoms there. So, in O-speak, now I want to "Lego-build" the backbone between the terminal residues in the known structure, and using the C-alphas obtained by baton building.

Does anyone know how to do this? We read the manual front to back and could not find anything in there that shows how to do it, and the coot-archive appears not to contain the word "backbone".

Thanks,

Mark
