This or an analogous solution is the only way to remove translational
motion without subtracting out rotation. There should be postprocessing
tools which subtracts out the center of mass position from each frame of
a trajectory. On the other hand, fixing an atom is not suggested- it
will cause various artifacts and distort motion in many degrees of of
freedom, including rotation.

best regards--
