IMPORTANT NOTE: When using the rigid option with the zero style, -only the velocities of atoms that are in the group specified with the -velocity command will be adjusted, and likewise contribute to the -calculation of the center-of-mass velocity or angular momentum of each -rigid body. This allows you to zero out the momenta of a subset of -the rigid bodies, but you will get incomplete zeroing if you specify a -group that includes only a subset of the atoms in one or more of the -rigid bodies. -

The rigid option only has meaning when used with the zero style. +It allows specification of a fix-ID for one of the rigid-body +fix variants which defines a set of rigid bodies. The +zeroing of linear or angular momentum is then performed for each rigid +body defined by the fix, as described above. +

Default:
The option defaults are dist = uniform, sum = no, mom = yes, rot = no, -temp = full style on group-ID, loop = all, and units = lattice. +temp = full style on group-ID, loop = all, and units = lattice. The +rigid option is not defined by default.
