In most cases, you need several rounds of trjconv, in the proper order, to get your system in a proper state for visualization. With a molecule like dsDNA, it can be "centered" when both strands are at opposite "ends" of the box, because the geometric center of the strands coincides with the geometric center of the box. So extra steps need to be taken, sometimes with custom index groups.
