Re: difference between constraining,restraining and fixing the atoms

Hello,

When using fixedAtoms, the atoms defined as fixed never move at all.
When using constraints, the constrained atoms DO actually move, but
their movements are constrained with a force defined by the user.

The choice of using one or the other purely depends on the situation.
