You can also add a slack option to the edit which makes the potential well flat bottomed. If you made it say 0.2 then the metal coordinate would be very flexible and you wouldn't have the nonbonded term pushing them apart.<br><br><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Cheers<div><br></div><div>Nigel<div><br></div><div>---</div><div>Nigel W.
