[gmx-users] [gmx-developers] How to put two molecules inside the simulation box with a control on their DISTANCE and ANGLE

[Dallas Warren]

GROMACS Users emailing list more appropriate for this question.

You can used editconf to translate, rotate coordinates around.  So
move the 2nd one around, then copy / paste the coordinates into the
1st coordinate file, making sure adjust the atom number count and
maintain the correct header/footer format.  Another option is loading
into vmd and manually moving the molecules around, then saving the
coordinates.
Catch ya,
