I prefer to keep discussions professional, Mark and Tsjerk.

Anyway, I am doing MD with PBC. I have a surface which sits on the XY axes, the surface is not a square and my question is how do I tell gromacs that I have a non standard box. Please see my original post for more details:

Dear Omer,

I agree with Tsjerk that genconf is a useful tool to visualize the periodicity using PyMol, as was suggested. If you dismiss this kind of advice and repeat the original question, people get upset.

What you are saying is that you generated a box using editconf, but editconf does not put the atoms in the box. Hence putting a box that does not correspond to the coordinates will give rise to atomic clashes.

I'm not quite sure what you think should be the expected result of your trjconv operation.

I would like to ask your help on the following - I want my simulation to include a surface, and have PBC. The surface I chose is aligned on the XY plane. However, the surface is not a square. The surface dimensions are a=b=169.2 & c=6.9 Angstroms, the angles are: bc=ac=90 & ab=120 degrees.

I have used "editconf -f -box 16.92 16.92 0.69 -angles 90.0 90.0 120.0". To test this, I have used "trjconv -pbc nojump -center yes -boxcenter zero". My problem is that the trjconv generates a structure where some of the surface atoms are cut and/or overlapping...

Thank you. Omer.
