Dear Gmx Users,

I run pulling simulation of my ligand away from the protein. I
produced 1500 frames and run US windows with 0.1 nm spacing. However,
I have a gap in histograms - I need to use lower value of nstxtcout to
get the proper window where the gap is as the time it goes away is
really short.

  How can I rerun the same trajectory with lower nstxtcout ? I do not
want to use grompp as from the same mdp file with pulling simulation I
get different trajectories. My mdp (it is continuation after nvt and
npt respectively):

Shall I use rerun option of mdrun? But I wont be able to change
frequency of frames.


You can't create frames that aren't there, unfortunately. Saving every 0.2 ps is usually vast overkill; if you have a gap in the sampling, you probably need more windows rather than more frames in the existing ones.
