Hi Stamatia,

the difference between GetBestRMS and AlignMol is that GeBestRMS will yield the lowest RMSD across all symmetry-equivalent supeirmpositions, whereas AlignMol will yield the RMS from a single superimposition, by default obtained overlaying atoms with the same index across the two conformations.

See this gist for an example:

Cheers,
p.

What is the difference with GetBestRMS function since the AlignMol is supposed to give me the minimum RMSD?
