Hi all,

I'm using the NAMD energy plugin included in VMD 1.8.6. I noticed that
there is a new option in the GUI mode to set a dielectric constant.
However, it is not clear to me if that value corresponds to the solute
(in this case a protein or a peptide) or for the solvent. I assume is
for the latter. Your comments will be, as always, appreciated.

Cheers,
Michel
