Hi,
I think you're conflating imaging with superposition (best-fit
alignment). Imaging is moving things back into the primary unit cell.
Superposition is aligning the system to a reference. Commands like
'image' and 'autoimage' relate to the former; commands like 'rms' and
'align' relate to the latter.
You can do both, but unless you're running cpptraj version 5 or above
you need to do imaging before rms-fitting. So say I have a DNA
dodecamer in solvent and I want to image and best-fit to the structure
in the first frame and remove the solvent. I would do something like
this in cpptraj:
parm myparm.parm7
trajin mytraj.nc
strip :WAT parmout strip.parm7
autoimage origin
box nobox
align first :1-24&!.H=
trajout strip.image.fit.nc
run
The resulting trajectory 'strip.image.fit.nc' can be used with the
corresponding topology 'strip.parm7'. Hope this helps,
-Dan

My system (DNA, protein, and ions) I want to superimpose the trajectories where DNA keep the same position every frame of the traj. and protein moving without any alignemnt as my target is dissociation of protein and sure Ions and water. The Q?! Anchor : DNA , mobile region: ions , fixed is protein ?! Are these right parameters for auto images ?!
