Using the Draw_object command

This command allows one to draw objects that you have created. It can be used for many different things. We find it useful for drawing the unit cell (editing a database entry created by Symm_cell to include heavy atom sites for example), for leaving little messages during map interpretation, adding special, non-standard bonds etc, etc.

Quite complicated objects can be created, showing for example, non-crystallographic masks, or virus capsids.
