Dear Pymolers, I am trying to create a carved electron density around a ligand for a publication figure and I have come up with a question: what is the relationship between the level number in an isomesh command line versus a sigma level for a display of the density map in an application such as Xtalview. It does not appear that a value of 1.0 for level in Pymol yields a similar level of density in a map representation as a 1.0 sigma value in Xtalview. The relationship appears to be approximately 0.5 level in Pymol = 1.0 sigma in Xtalview. Is there a defined set of units or conversions for the Pymol level value? Are these the units even comparable? Thanks for your assistance.
