[gmx-users] How to avoid centering of solute by genbox

[Dallas B. Warren]

>I am trying to solvate a protein in a rectangular box, keeping it
towards one face.
>But whatever position I choose ( with editconf - translate ), genbox is
centering it
>while solvation. How to override this and keep the protein not at
center of box? 

Why is this a concern?

For simulation purposes, because of PBC, it doesn't matter where in the
box the protein is located.

For visualisation purposes, that is something that you deal with after
the simulation has been run.
