I have a pair of questions about displaying symmetry. First, I would like to recreate the packing of my protein within a single, distinct unit cell. I'd also like to show the lines of the unit cell around it. I can do it with multiple iterations of the symexp command, but is there a more elegant way?
Second, if I use symexp to generate the second chain of my dimer I end up with two objects that I would like to merge. If I "create dimer, monomer or sym_monomer" the resulting object contains half of the atoms from each chain rather than all of the atoms from both chains. I assume the problem is having two atoms with the same name in one object; is there a way around this? Thanks, Mark Nance Life Sciences Institute University of Michigan
