Re: size of water box and cellbasisvectors

Hi!

I usually put 5-10 Angstrem spacing on each side.
And then I get the cell basis vector using min/max (sometimes adding a 0.5
A just to be on the safe side).

Best,
Ajasja

### center the protein and also measure the min/max

set allp [atomselect top "all"]

measure center $allp

measure minmax $allp

set dims [measure minmax $allp]; vecsub [lindex $dims 1] [lindex $dims 0]

# center the protein

$allp moveby [vecinvert [measure center $allp]]
$allp delete
