A delayed update...

Can you explain that last comment further?  How I can turn 'Interactive
dots' on?  I think that might solve my problem.

I figured out how to turn the dots off with  'Show probe dots in coot' they
go away, but after using refinement, or rotate/translate, they reappear.
 Even if I turn off the dots, then disconnect the window from Phenix, they
reappear after any model manipulation.  The generic display object now
works.   I can turn the dots off within coot using the 'generic display
objects', but, new generic display objects appear after every manipulation
of the model.  It's awash, I still have to actively turn off the dots
constantly, either with phenix 'show probe dots in coot' or with coot
'generic object display'.

Any suggestions?  Should I just take the practical solution of opening
stand-alone coot sessions?
Thanks,
Nat
(using phenix 1.9 pre-1669 and coot 8-pre 5001)
