Constraints

ADFinput: Select 'Coordinates' from the 'Model' Menu. To freeze a coordinate: check the corresponding box in the list of atoms.
ADFinput: Select 'Geometry Restraints' from the 'Details' Menu. Select the checkbox 'Include restraints'. Select the atoms with the mouse. Select the 'Add' command to add a restraint.
