Partial charges

[mosera]

It seems like partial atomic charges are not shown in output of geometry optimization or molecular orbitals. I’d like that output to be shown. I remember back in v14 there was a little bit of code I could add to get that functionality. Any help here before I start mucking about :)

Can you clarify what engine you are talking about? Is this when running a Gaussian job, or some other engine?

G16.

Now that you said that I went back and looked at a bunch of output since I upgraded from g09 to g16. In the g09 output, I do see partial charges in energy, geom opt, and molecular orbital calculations. Once it went to g16, it disappears. I don't have two identical molecules molecules using both g09 and g16, but in the raw output I don't see anything different that might stop the pattern matching.

schmidt - Ya, now I'm definitely confused. I can't see anything in parse_gaussian.cgi or view_job.cgi that would be stopping it from getting pulled from the output or posted.
