[3dem] Spider-reference free classsum

Xiao,

Your spider script is looking for particle names with 5 digits (as in xyz00001), but in your email you say that your particle names have 4 digits (xyz0001).

If by "particle set" you mean that your particles were in a stack rather than as individual particles, then you need to indicate that by  "xyz@" instead of "xyz". One advantage of using a stack of particle images is that the number of digits doesn't matter, for instance: xyz at 00001 is the same as xyz at 0001.

One last comment, in your script the alignment radius set to 38 pixels won't work since you indicate that your particle dimension is 72 pixels and you are masking out the corners of your particles using a radius of 35. Since you set the diameter to 40 pixels you probably want to use 20 pixels for the last ring.

Good luck.
Ed

When I did the run, the program was asking for the individual particles (ykZ0001) rather than a particle set. The batch-file (below) was modified from the nature paper. Can anyone be so kind to let me know which bit I was missing?
