Option: round-off

Syntax

-round-off <property> <accuracy>

Description

This option allows to round off the values of the given <property> to the given <accuracy>.

The <property> can be X, Y or Z (referring to Cartesian coordinates of atoms), H (referring to box vectors), or any per-atom auxiliary property. If it is defined as "XYZ", then all three coordinates will be rounded off; if it is "AUX", then all auxiliary properties will be rounded off. The <accuracy> should be a positive real number, and can be given using the exponent notation (see examples below).

If a selection was defined (with the option -select) then the rounding off will affect only the selected atoms.

Default

By default numbers are not rounded off, they are stored as double precision real numbers (i.e. at least 15 significant numbers).
