[gmx-users] Problem with gmx trjconv -box -1 -1 14

[Stefano Borocci]

Hi all,
I am trying to use trjconv -box -1 -1 14 to modify the z dimention of the
box containing DMPC lipid bilayer and water.
I have used:

trjconv -f dmpc.xtc -pbc mol -center -o dmpc_mol_cent.xtc -s dmpc.tpr
trjconv -f dmpc_mol_cent.xtc -o dmpc_newbox.xtc -box -1 -1 14

Both the modified version of trjconv (as reported in
http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/871) and the gmx trjconv of GROMACS 5.0
don't work. The -1 option in -box, for the x and y dimension, don't
preserve the original box size but changes these as 0: I obtain a box with
dimension 0 0 14.

Thanks in advance



Stefano
