Is there any software that could generate the atom configurations used in the .fdf files? I am currently using wxDragon to convert the .cif file, but it would automatically reduce the atom number by taking advantage of symmetry. Besides, wxDragon seems doesn’t allow me to modify the structure. I am wondering what the mainstream tools for this kind of job?
