Thanks for your response. Actually I fully followed your tutorial. the pull-coord1-rate = 0.007 indicated in the pdf file is just for the pulling step and then in the next step I have pull-coord1-rate = 0.0 for each windows. Can we do the pulling step with pull-coord1-rate = 0.0 !? Regards, Alex

Hi, Do check out gmx editconf -h for what it says about -d. Hint, that isn't setting the box dimensions directly, which is why you're getting a much bigger box. Look also at the output of editconf, which will tel lyou that it's too big. Mark On Thu, Oct 13, 2016 at 4:39 PM Matilde Viegas wrote
