Hello OpenBabel developers,
Greetings!
I am coding to read the coordinates from gaussian log file using OpenBabel
libraries. Having the coordinates, I calculate molecular electric moments up to
quadrupoles.
To compare my results to QM, particularly for quadrupoles, I need to have the
"Standard Orientation” as Gaussian does Population analysis in the Standard
Orientation.
My question is that when I use OpenBabel to extract the coordinate, does it
return the Standard Orientation?
You can try to use GetConformers to access all the coordinates that
Gaussian prints, however it is only of either the standard orientation
or of the input orientation. This you can check by comparing to the log
file manually for a few cases.
