<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: The periodic image flags of atoms in rigid bodies are
altered so that the rigid body can be reconstructed correctly when it
straddles periodic boundaries. The atom image flags are not
incremented/decremented as they would be for non-rigid atoms. This
means you cannot interpret them as you normally would. For example,
the image flag values written to a <A HREF = "dump.html">dump file</A> will be
different than they would be if the atoms were not in a rigid body.
Likewise the <A HREF = "compute_msd.html">compute msd</A> will not compute the
expected mean-squared displacement for such atoms if the body moves
across periodic boundaries. It also means that if you have bonds
between a pair of rigid bodies and the bond straddles a periodic
boundary, you cannot use the <A HREF = "replicate.html">replicate</A> command to
increase the system size. Note that this fix does define image flags
for each rigid body, which are incremented when the rigid body crosses
a periodic boundary in the usual way. These image flags have the same
meaning as atom images (see the "dump" command) and can be accessed
and output as described below.
