It does, indeed, run refmac to get bulk solvent and anisotropy corrections.

</div>you're absolutely right.  (mostly so, given these are questions to the 
coot bb :) )

Just one comment, and one question, if I may:

1.Comment: sometimes it's just a good idea to know what are you actually 
calculating, so a bit better to dig deeper in the files that you use, and get 
to the point where you need to choose for instance which coefficients to use 
etc. Especially for beginners  (e.g. bad idea to look at a [Fcalc;PHIcalc] 
map...the map will look gorgeous ;) so on and so forth)

2. Actually this example is interesting, to learn a bit more about what is it 
that Coot is actually doing when invoking  File -> Fetch PDB & Map using EDS
It works indeed fine.
If I go to EDS however, because of too high a disagreement on Rfactors, it 
actually doesn't enable me to get anything at all (am I missing something here?)
And, going to "the source", in the PDB entry 1C75, the deposited structure 
factor file, only includes observed amplitudes (and sd's) for measured 
reflections.
My question: closing coot after fetching the EDS entry (coot IS able to get 
something from EDS!?), if you look at the coot-download dir, you can find an 
mtz with many columns, including sigmaA-weighted amplitudes and phases for 
2fo-fc anf fo-fc fourier ("a la Refmac")
so, as Ed suggested, I guess coot is performing a 0 cycles refmac behind the 
scenes? or is it doing something else?
wouldn't it be good to have also the original sf file saved in the download 
directory? 

thanks
ale

Hi all,


I might be missing something here,

but in Coot, can you not just use File -> Fetch PDB & Map using EDS… to get 
both the model and the map? This definitely works for me for your example 1C75.
