interactions (with respect to each other) during refinement.

If you believe that the co-factors are both there at the same time,
as your last posting explains, why do you want to urn off VdW interactions ?

They have to be there if the molecules are there and they should not be turned off, because they exist.

I can see two explanations:

1. That the interpretation of the density os wrong and the two co- factors do not co-exist 2. That the REFMAC VdW assumptions are wrong and thus push the co- factors too far apart.

I think its worth investigating the above, but its not worth investigating how to shut down these restraints.
I think that for good or for bad they are trying to tell you something.
