OK, I got it. But how can I get a .xtc output of NPT or NVT equilibration? The output of mdrun -deffnm npt doesn't have any .xtc files to visualize by VMD. I have seen that I get .xtc file just after the final mdrun -deffnm md (as you said).

You can load the .xtc file as data for a coordinate file in, e.g. VMD, and watch the movie of the simulation after it is complete. -Justin > > Sincerely, > Shima > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Justin Lemkul <jalem...@vt.edu> > To: Shima Arasteh <shima_arasteh2...@yahoo.com>; Discussion list for GROMACS > users <gmx-users@gromacs.org> > Cc: > Sent: Thursday, August 9, 2012 10:45 PM > Subject: Re: [gmx-users] Visualizing a process > > > > On 8/9/12 2:12 PM, Shima Arasteh wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Is it possible to view the process of a NPT or NVT equilibration?
