[gmx-users] trjconv

[Erik Marklund]

Dear Apramita,

Unfortunately, the short answer is that you need to think it through. What is being calculated, and how is the trajectory information affected by trjconv? If you for instance apply trjconv -fit rot+trans prior to RDF calculations, you might influence the results.

Kind regards,
Erik
