Hi Dimuthu,

Sure! In VMD, you can change resids at will, or if you choose to select
based on residues instead of resids, you'll likely find the numbering
already matches what you want. The RMSD trajectory tool inherits its
biases from VMD selections in general. What I always tell folks is to
take the selection text in the upper left hand corner (the default is
"protein"), and see if the selection matches what you'd like it to
match. The whole protein will be both monomers, but if you'd like to
only look at one monomer, something like "fragment 0" or "segname PA"
will probably be the correct selections.
