<div>Dear Dune,</div><div><br /></div><div>There is no cap on the number of atoms that can be fixed. But there is a limited number of characters per line that cp2k reads in.
So if you list is too long, the last atoms won't be fixed.
I don't remember the limit by heart, but in general I don't put more than 200 characters per line, even if it only improves readability.</div><div>Two hints to help you:</div><div> - use .. for consecutive numbers, e.g.</div><div>LIST 1..10</div><div> - LIST can be repeated, e.g.<br /></div><div>LIST 2..10 12..20<br /></div><div>LIST 22..30 32..40<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Fabian</div><div><br /></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="auto" class="gmail_attr">On Monday, 17 July 2023 at 15:56:36 UTC+2 Dune André wrote:<br/></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0 0 0 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div>Dear CP2K users,</div><div><br></div><div>I would like to run a geometry optimization while keeping all atoms except hydrogen atoms fixed. <br></div><div><br></div><div>I used the following sections in the input file with a list of around 750 atoms:</div><div> &MOTION<br> &CONSTRAINT<br> &FIXED_ATOMS<br> LIST 1 3 4 ...<br></div><div> &END FIXED_ATOMS<br> &END CONSTRAINT<br> &END MOTION<br> </div><div>But it seems that just a part of the atoms I gave in the list were frozen.
