Dear Justin
My question can be related to both. Ok let me talk about the tutorial. The simulation has finished compeletly and log file and other outputs show the completion of 1 ns simulation.

this is part of gyrate.xvg file I see:
-------------
@ s0 legend "Rg"
@ s1 legend "RgX"
@ s2 legend "RgY"
@ s3 legend "RgZ"

---------------------------------------
This was the start and end of data reported in gyrate.xvg file.
all the outputs are written in files every 1000 steps (1000*0.002=2ps).
I expect to see in gyrate.xvg file, the last line for 500 which corresponds to the (500*2=1000ps)

can you please explain the result for having lines till 530?
-----------
About plotting the graph if I know use the two first coloumns, I will not have graph for Rg versus simulation time which I am interested in?

Thanks for your time
Regards
D.M

Are you talking about the tutorial or your own data?  If you are talking about the tutorial, then the run should have been for 1 ns.  If there are fewer frames, then either the .mdp file was changed to specify less time or the simulation stopped prematurely.

If you're talking about your own data, I have no way to know what was expected.  You can't plot more frames than are present.  I don't use gnuplot so I can't offer you any advice as to how you can manipulate the way the data are displayed.
