Description:
</B>
</P>
<P>
Modify one or more parameters of a previously defined fix. Not all
fix styles support all parameters.
</P>
<P>
The
<I>
temp
</I>
keyword is used to determine how a fix computes
temperature. The specified compute ID must have been previously
defined by the user via the
<A
HREF =
"compute.html"
>
compute
</A>
command and it must
be a style of compute that calculates a temperature. All fixes that
compute temperatures defined their own compute by default, as
described in their documentation. Thus this option allows the user to
override the default method for computing T.
</P>
<P>
The
<I>
press
</I>
keyword is used to determine how a fix computes pressure.
The specified compute ID must have been previously defined by the user
via the
<A
HREF =
"compute.html"
>
compute
</A>
command and it must be a style of
compute that calculates a pressure. All fixes that compute pressures
defined their own compute by default, as described in their
documentation. Thus this option allows the user to override the
default method for computing P.
</P>
<P>
For fixes that calculates a contribution to the potential energy of
the system, the
<I>
energy
</I>
keyword will include that contribution in
thermodyanmic output of the potential energy, as invoked by the
<A
HREF =
"thermo_style.html"
>
thermo_style
</A>
command. The value of the
contribution can also be printed by itself using the
<A
HREF =
"thermo_style.html"
>
thermo_style
custom
</A>
keywords. The documentation for individual
fix commands specifies whether they make a contribution to the
potential energy.

Default:

The option defaults are temp = ID defined by fix, press = ID defined
by fix, energy = no.
