Justin,

thanks for advises.

Finally how I could effectively reduce size of my system (in x and y )
to the defined pbc box size ( see picture to the previous comment) ?

I've noticed that increasing of x and y to the 12 nm I obtain ideal
shape of the bilayer without miss-matches of the left and right sizes.
But when I try to decrease dimensions of that system from 12 to 8 nm

genbox -cs xz.gro -box 8.04542 8.04542 10.19156

I've obtained the system with the broadered water layers again ( as in
the picture which I've shown).

James
