Hello, I am trying to understand how to restore a chain after a deletion in coot. I have deleted some residues (using delete-residue-range). The residues are visually gone, and replaced with a dotted line (a loop) between the flanking residues. I am not sure the best way to seal this gap. I can link the flanking residues, so that they remain bound, but two things make me think this is not the right way to go about it: (1) the number of the residues still assumes there is a gap, even after renumbering, and (2) the loop remains (of course, I could hide the loop and solve the problem cosmetically, but I think the loop is telling me that coot things the residues are still there).
Is linking the "right" way to do this? If so, how do I resolve the numbering issue (by separately re-numbering the two halves?)? Shouldn't the dotted line loop go away? Or is linking wrong? I can find a lot in coot docs about mutating, deleting, but it seems inserting is far less common. Thank you!
