Hi Martin,

  Fit an atomic model of the asymmetric unit then use volume zone (Volume Viewer menu entry Feature / Zone) then save the map (Volume Viewer / File / Same Map As…).  See the maskZone option description in the volume save command for details

Hi Tom,

A quick question. I have a helical reconstruction (EM) and would like to extract  the density for the asymmetric unit from the map. How does one do this?

Best.
