Hello, I am trying to build a bigger liquid phase (1000) from a small cluster of molecules (125). So far I have succeeded in forming the small cluster of 125 molecules shown in the below image. This was after running gmx trjconv ... -pbc cluster -center to bring the molecules into the middle of the box. http://i.imgur.com/nlgDUzh.png Now, the seemingly very trivial issue I am having is that I cannot figure out how to remove the empty space surrounding the cluster. I would like to do this automatically rather than by manually specifying a box size. Can anyone suggest a workflow for doing this?
Determining the box size from maximum and minimum coordinates along each axis should be simple from the coordinate file, otherwise apply a position restraint and run a couple of steps of NPT and the box will shrink down to fit the system.
