[gmx-users] translate problem

[gromacs query]

Hi Chandan

>> you need to translate along Z, then use -translate 0 0 -10 with your

Yes but form me it works in otherwise way, I don't know whats wrong.
For me  '-translate 0 0 -100000' translates along X not Z thats why I used
as '-translate -100000 0 0'

and -translate 0 0 -10 does not translate at all (only values like 100000
translates a little (few angstrom))


I have tried on both 4.6.3 and 5.0.2 version
