I must use editconf -translate to do this, however I cannot seem to make it
work.

The slab is centered has the same height and width (y and z coordinates) of the
box, however it is one third of the length (the x coordinate).  Graphically, at
the moment, it looks like this:
 _____________________
|       xxxxxxx       |
|       xxxxxxx       |
|_______xxxxxxx_______|

Where 'xxxxxx' is my slab (that is how the view comes up when I open the file in
rasmol).

The dimensions of the box (as listed in the .gro file) are 13.90030 4.02160
5.36640

As I previously said, I want the slab to be on the right side of the box, not
the center, however I have tried several different things and it does not seem
to want to work for me (however, I am unsure if I am using the proper values
for -translate).

What X Y Z coordinates should I use for this to translate it?


the difference between new and old com. most likely 5 0 0 will do the trick.

Thanks!
