Hi,
 
I have done a MD of a system GPCR/POPC, and I was trying to check my membrane with g_order. I made the index file like indicated in the web site using 
 
make_ndx -f md_0_10.tpr -o sn1.ndx

then I use g_order

g_order -s md_0_10.tpr -f md_0_10.trr (or .xtc try both) -n sn1.ndx -d z -od deuter_sn1.xvg

the program seems to read the trajectory

but when I try to look at the results I only see 
# This file was created Fri Jul 17 14:53:20 2009

@    xaxis  label "Atom"
@    yaxis  label "Scd"
@TYPE xy
 There no number. It is like nothing happen. I didn't had that issu for the rmsd
 calculation or even density. I have a nice plot for both
 
 Could somebody help me on that?
 
 thank you in advance
