I have not thought about if your constraint is a good idea, but I want to confirm that this type of constraint is not allowed within the current GUI.
The underlying constraint mechanism within GSAS-II would allow it to be included if input, but I am not sure how to write an interface that allows input and editing of completely general constraints.

I would like to analyze the segregation kinetics from these data. I fit the Histogram Scale Factor and define a constrain that all phase fractions add up to 1.0. For consistency I would like to set up a constrain of the form 0:0:Scale * 0::Afrac:3 + 1:0:Scale fraction_doped_ceria * Pt4+ occupancy plus fraction_segregated_platinum i.e. a constrain that makes the amount of platinum in the system constant (under the assumption that all platinum is 'visible' i.e. no X-ray amorphous Pt clusters are present). At present (Rev 2493) this does not seem to be possible and I try to manually set the correct Pt4+ occupancy. This is rather tedious iteration process. Could this be implemented in GSASII or is my analysis faulted?
