Dear all,

I want to make a movie from a given MD trajectory of some cylindrical rigid
particles.

Using graphics command in tcl, I'm able to produce a single snapshot.
However I am stuck when I want to add a new frame to my molecule.

Simplified version of what I have in my tcl script (for just one particle
which moves along z axis) is:

color Display Background white
mol new
graphics 0 color 7
graphics 0 cylinder {0 0 0} {0 0 1} radius 0.4 resolution 30 filled yes
animate dup 0
graphics 0 delete all
graphics 0 cylinder {0 0 0.5} {0 0 1.5} radius 0.4 resolution 30 filled yes
