First, Coot doesn't do much with masks (which is are maps with only 1s and 0s). I think that it can read them in, but not write them out.

Maybe I should explain an example: Say coot detects an unmodelled blob (maybe a ligand). Now, I would like to do

a number of things without biasing towards a model. Like comparing these map regions, excluding

intrusion of a solvent mask, etc.


OK, so when you do an "Everywhere" ligand search you get a "Masked map (by protein)" - is that what you want. It shows the "interesting blobs" considered by Coot for ligand fitting.


Now could coot for example just generate a mask around what it already knows are blobs?


Is the above what you want?


Possible useful items could be a solvent mask not including that regions,

I won't be adding masks any time soon. Masked maps are quite well implemented  though.


or a density map

that includes only features with a certain boundary around that blob.


So, that's not quite what the "Masked map (by protein)" is - but it will take only a few  minutes to add a function that changes to 0 density values below a certain threshold - if that's what you need.
