Hi,
If you're getting surface area due to periodic boundaries, the easiest
solution (at present) would be to replicate the structure across the
boundary before doing the calculation, or use the PBC tools plugins to
unwrap the parts of the structure crossing the boundary. I hope to implement
handling of periodic cells in the SASA calculation, but it I haven't started
working on it yet.
Cheers,
John Stone
