Dear gmx-users,

I want to make a long nano-fiber composed of many non-covalently bonded proteins, it elongates along the Z axial direction.

in editconf, we can define the "Distance between the solute and the box", but it works for x,y and z directions at the same time.

e.g. my command
editconf -f protein.gro -o protein_box.gro -c -d 1.0 -bt cubic, then the out come would be a box with of at least 1.0 nm "between any two periodic images of a protein".

What should I do if I want to set the distance for z axis smaller than x and y? which means, let the molecules along Z "see" each other within 2nm?


Observe the box created by -d 1.0 and then start again with editconf -box and choose dimensions you want.
