Re: [COOT] to separate levels of positive and negative density

Why not read the diff map in twice? You can have diff contour levels for 
each copy of the map..

Hi Paul,
If I use a *map_coeffs.mtz file from the phenix.refine, how can I turn 
off the negative density?

No (and yes).

When I try to build a fragment with a poor density I want to decrease 
the level of positive density from 3 sigma to 2 or even 1 sigma to 
see more positive density, but then the whole map becomes red with 
negative density. 


That is supposed to indicate something to you.

Can I shut off the negative density at all, leaving only the positive 
density in the PHFOFCWT maps? 


Yes - sort of. When you read in the mtz file, uncheck the "is 
difference map?" check box, then you will not get a negative level.  
You will have to colour the new map "by hand" though.


( I would like also to color them separately). It is possible to do 
so in xtalview.




As above - if you want scroll negative levels then you will need to do 
something like:


(set-stop-scroll-diff-map-level -5)

Thank you, Paul.
I understand now that if I want positive and negative densities at 
different levels, I will need to load the PHFOFCWT map twice, with 
checked and unchecked "is difference map?" and have negative density at 
3sigma (with checked diff.map) and positive density at 1 sigma (with 
unchecked diff.map).
