Thanks, Axel.
I just found a simple way for my case to ignore dummy atoms. Since the x (or y, z) coordinate is never 0, so I just select 'all not x 0.0000'.
And for the plugin, all files are in 'Read only', so it's not possible to modify vmd.rc or vmd.py. Anyway, I'll work it under Win7 system, which is parallel installed in my Mac. So it's not so inconvenient.
Best wishes
Dan
