Restraints inhibit motion; constraints fix bond lengths or angles. http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Constraints_and_Restraints Position restraints are a common part of many workflows. These are likely what you need. http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Position_Restraints -Justin -- ======================================== Justin A.
