Mini Map Aide: Difference between revisions

Mini Map Aide is meant to be a completely minimal electron density map viewing aid that works on a residue-by-residue basis and could even be used by experimentalists for checking a structure in the final refinement rounds if the user has no computer access for some reason. To this end the bad regions could be recorded, ''e.g.'' by taking screen-shots, for later attention with a dedicated PC-based molecular graphics program, such as [https://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/personal/pemsley/coot/ Coot]. Despite its limitations, the aim is for ''mini map aide'' to be useful in research or as a teaching aid! All of the display calculations are done by a client-side script running in the user's web browser and neither the structure nor the map need to be uploaded to the server. They must, of course, be transferred to the phone beforehand by one or other means!
