<input file> | Source file | ||
<output file> | Destination file | ||
sym=<Cn,Dn> | Apply an n-fold rotational symmetry to each image | ||
[mask=<rad>] | Outside mask | ||
[imask=<rad>] | Inner mask applied only for location purposes. Not applied to output. | ||
[refine] | Used when the orientation is off by less than 10 degrees |
Typical usage: align3dsym threed.0a.mrc threed.0a.mrc sym=c7
This program will rotate 3D model so it's rotational symmetries are aligned on the predefined axes. The model MUST be centered properly before this program is used. By default the n-fold symmetric axis is z, and a 2-fold axis (for D symmetry) lies along x. Note that this program does not currently work on icosahedral particles.
