[CP2K:9331] Optimizing Geometry AND Unitary cell

Dear Henrique Junior, 

no, range constraints are not possible. 
Beside that I don’t see the point in using 
them, optimization in conjunction with range 
constraints is often rather involved and not 
as easy as it looks at first sight. 

Best, 
Thomas Kühne

In my geometric optimization, I need to, also, optimize the size of my unitary cell BUT I’d like to specify a range in which the cell is allowed to expand (or contract, of course). Is this possible? Can someone point me to any example?
