RE: [PyMOL] Saving a carved section of a map.

[Warren D. <wa...@de...>]

Hi Carsten,

This isn't yet possible from within PyMOL, but it will be soon since it
is a recurring request.  In the meantime unforutnately, you will need to
truncate the maps outside of PyMOL in order to generate smaller session
files.

Sorry about that!

Cheers,
Warren
