"IMAGE_MAP" menu block enables you to create and modify images of maps. Complete block appears on the page 6.
The IMAGE_MAP menu block is loaded with the command "<MAIN_CMDS:load_image_map.com". It includes some default variable setups as active map (1), box sizes (12 grid points) and contouring level (1.0). These values can be later modified with the MAP_ACT?, MAP_BOX and MAP_CONT.
See also the "IMAGE MAP" commands in MAIN_MENU:image.html.

The information about the active map.
Creates a mask (envelope) around the "active" atoms using a cushion of 5 grid points around the currently active map "MAP_ACT?".
The default mask creation method is based on the assumption that atoms lie within peaks of electron density and that their density spreads as long as the gradient is down hill. As soon as it goes up it is assumed that such grid points belong to some other peak.
The macro MAIN_CMDS:image_map_mask.cmds contains the commands.
