Have you cared to look at old posts? I myself posted this question and also the solution around 10 days back. PLease have a look at that. For your information, you will be using PBCTOOLS plugin of vmd to get any unwrapped coordinates. Google this plugin name and first link takes you to the home page of plugin where you can have a look at several options. I hope it helps.

Hello,

In order to get the coordinates of the atoms of one frame in a Molecular Dy=
namics simulation, I am using the script attached.

It seems to work fine, however, when I have periodic boundary conditions, I=
 am getting the coordinate values of the periodic atom. Therefore, when I r=
epresent those values, I see the atoms jumping from one side to the other.

I wonder if there is a way to obtain the global coordinate values of the at=
oms.

Thank you
