17 g_rotmat plots the rotation matrix required for least squares fitting a
18 conformation onto the reference conformation provided with -s. Trans‐
19 lation is removed before fitting. The output are the three vectors
20 that give the new directions of the x, y and z directions of the refer‐
21 ence conformation, for example: (zx,zy,zz) is the orientation of the
22 reference z-axis in the trajectory frame.
23
24
25 This tool is useful for, for instance, determining the orientation of a
26 molecule at an interface, possibly on a trajectory produced with trj‐
27 conv -fit rotxy+transxy to remove the rotation in the xy-plane.
28
29
30 Option -ref determines a reference structure for fitting, instead of
31 using the structure from -s. The structure with the lowest sum of
32 RMSD's to all other structures is used. Since the computational cost
33 of this procedure grows with the square of the number of frames, the
34 -skip option can be useful. A full fit or only a fit in the x/y plane
35 can be performed.
36
37
38 Option -fitxy fits in the x/y plane before determining the rotation
39 matrix.
