Documentation for Legacy v0.9
Here you can find the user guide and examples for the previous major release series of Dissolve (v0.9). This should be considered as legacy documentation and will be removed at some point.

Dissolve is a classical simulation code intended to help in analysing experimental scattering (diffraction) measurements through generating representative atomic configurations consistent with supplied reference data. Its primary use is for disordered systems such as those comprised of (or containing) liquids and glasses, but it can be applied to much more complex systems. See What is Dissolve? for more information.
