>/ />>/ I doubt the chain identifiers are relevant. Both .gro and .pdb files should />>/ display properly.

I'm sorry that I don't understand. So I did something wrong in PBC by trjconv?
And I tried another way. I change the content of .gro file. I plus the number of residues in A-chain to B-chain's residue number. And this new gro file shows the correct snapshot in VMD. for example my a-chain has 21 residues, b-chain has 30 residues. In output .gro file the residue number is 1 to 21 and 1 to 30. I'm afraid VMD got confused for the repeat number 1 to 21. So I change 1-30 in b-chain to 22-51. Then snapshot in VMD become correct.

Thank you.
