Dear Abinit users:
Another question confused me fo ra long time. May need your help again.
When I do the cell optimizetion, I first modify nuclear
position(optcell=0), then do full optimization of cell geometry(optcell=2).
Is it right?
And if dont't use optcell=2(full optimization of cell geometry), after I
modify nuclear position(optcell=0), for optimization of volume
only(optcell=1) and constant-volume optimizationof cell geometry(optcell=3),
which one I should do first? (I try both, the results are different. )

Best Regards,
