We've just noticed this problem with P 3 2 1 too. This seems to be an incompatibility between the version of the library used to create the MTZ file and/or the current version of the library, because MTZDUMP (compiled with v6.0.1) has the same problem with some but not all MTZ files, e.g. it reports space-group name P 3 2 1 (with embedded spaces) in the header as just 'P'. According to the history the file was written in Dec 2004 by SORTMTZ (it doesn't say which version). Another file with the space-group name 'P 3 2 1' (i.e. enclosed in '...') is correctly reported. Somewhere there was presumably a switch from not enclosing space-group names between '...' to using '...', but the library can't handle the case of embedded spaces but no '...'. This is not a recent change, MTZDUMP in versions 4.2 & 5 has the same problem! -- Ian > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Martyn Winn > Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 8:53 AM > To: Tilo Strutz > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [ccp4bb]: SpaceGroupNames > > *** For details on how to be removed from this list visit the *** > *** CCP4 home page http://www.ccp4.ac.uk *** > > > DM should be fine with spaces, provided it is as least as > recent as the > F2MTZ you are using. > > Can you check what version of DM you are using? > > If it is still a problem, can you give details of how you are running > DM, whether you are using GUI, etc > > Cheers > Martyn > > On Mon, 2006-06-26 at 18:30 +0200, Tilo Strutz wrote: > > *** For details on how to be removed from this list visit the *** > > *** CCP4 home page http://www.ccp4.ac.uk *** > > > > > > Dear, > > > > I have observed that F2MTZ creates space-group names with > spaces in-between, e.g. 'P 43 21 2', > > independent on whether > > > > SYMMETRY P43212 > > or > > SYMMETRY 96 > > > > was given as card. > > > > However, DM truncates the string down to 'P'. > > > > Bug or feature? > > > > How can I prevent F2MTZ from putting the spaces or how can > I prevent DM from cutting the string? > > Is there a patch available? > > > > > > > Disclaimer This communication is confidential and may contain privileged information intended solely for the named addressee(s).
