Dear all,

I'm having a bit of trouble with the constrained embed functionality.

I have a core molecule (m2) with 3D co-ordinates and a molecule I would like to 
superpose (m1).

Running constrained embed on these returns a value error because it is not 
possible to embed m1 with the coord map (in the constrained embed function in 
AllChem.py). It is possible to embed the molecule without the coordmap.

I include a working not-working example below.

I might be missing some fundamental reason why this function cannot be run on 
this pair of molecules.

If not has anyone seen this problem before or no of a way to fix it?

Best wishes,

Anthony
