Dear all,

I have a structure at fairly low resolution that I am trying to refine
with Refmac. I do not want to refine B factors so have arbitrarily set
them all to 20 and then run refmac in the ccp4i GUI after deselecting
the "refine temperature factors" box. However, when I look at the
resulting pdb file my B factors vary from 2 to 90.

Is Refmac just calculating my B factors or is it still refining them,
and if the latter how can I stop it?

Thanks,

Simon
