Hi Martin & James, is it just a coincident that you both ask almost the same question?
You could remove all water atoms with few protein contacts or with a small surface area. For example: remove solvent beyond 3.5 of polymer set dot_solvent get_area solvent, load_b=1 remove solvent and b > 20 Hope that helps.
