AW: Coordinates of Carbon atoms on Graphite

You need to type it to the representations to check your selection,
afterwards File->save coordinates with the same selection text.

I get:
vmd > [atomselect top all] move [transaxis z 45]
vmd > y>-1.4
invalid command name "y>-1.4"

Simply generated by :

 

1. [atomselect top all] move [transaxis z 45]

 

2. Selecting the two rows by "y > -1.4"

3. Save coordinates by using "y > -1.4"

 

4. Load the new pdb into new mol

 

5. [atomselect top all] move [transaxis z -45]

6. Save coordinates again

 

That's it.

Here is pdb file.

Thank you,

I have no idea how you layers look like, but for example by using coordinate
atom selections like "y > 0". By labeling one atom (pressing "1") u can get
a reference coordinate for the dimension you need in your case. Afterwards
use "save coordinates" with the selection worked. Otherwise, show me you
pdb.

Hi,

 

So far, all pdb files for graphite show four layers.I only need two layers,
not four. How can I get VMD to show two layers only?

Why not, but why heteronymous?

Hello,

 

I have to run a namd simulation for the interaction between a nano-sized
water droplet and graphite substrate. Can I use VMD to display the
coordinates of atoms in two heteronymous layers of hexagonal graphite?

 

Thank you,

Mihaela
