[molpro-user] How to avoid orbital mixing when changing symmetry

Try to use "diab" to maximize the overlap of the output orbitals onto the reference set.

Dear all,

I would like to compute a energy surface for a molecule CASSCF level
I started for the most symmetric geometry that belong into C2v group. I computed a small CASSCF(2,2) to get the proper orbitals and then moved to CASSCF(2,9).
But when I change the geometry along the reaction coordinate the symmetry changes to C2 and the orbitals mix.

I've found that it is possible using: dont,orbital --> which disable the orbital optimization, but it still mixes the orbitals.

Someone has a solution?
Thank you in advance.
