Hi Jian,

Do you mean the size of the cubic supercell? If so it's very easy indeed!

The size of the cell is specified with the block LatticeVectors. In your
case you can choose a value of the lattice constant large enough to isolate
the periodic images of the cluster,

latticeConstant                   XXX Ang     # Here you choose your lattice
constant

and then

%block LatticeVectors
  1  0  0
  0  1  0
  0  0  1
%endblock LatticeVectors

To fix the size and shape of the supercell during relaxation you have to set


MD.VariableCell         .false.

And that's it!

Regards,

Pablo
