Hi Stephan,
Thank you for your reply. Before using your suggestion the output I received from the command:
trajin bilayer_run.nc
vector com center out upper_movement.dat :1-192
run
was (only first 10 frames shown):
#Frame                                                     com

If I use your suggested command  (center :1-192 origin image origin) and re run the vector command I receive the output:
#Frame                                                     com

      10  -0.1553   0.9610   1.1247   0.0000   0.0000   0.0000
Does this correspond to the COM drift? And if so how do I reset the monolayer by the corresponding movement
 (in X, Y, Z) to create a new trajectory without monolayer COM drift so I can calculate the lateral diffusion?
Regards,
Christopher

Hi Christopher,
You can try with something like this before running your analysis:
center :1-192 origin
image origin
If you have wrapping turned on, make sure to unwrap the trajectory first,
or this will not work properly. You can recheck the COM with the vector
command.
Let me know if it works.
Cheers,
