Hi all,
        
I would like to visualise CONTCAR or POSCAR file with VMD. I can do that
because that format are available in VMD thanks to the vasp plugin. But
I would like to draw the cell edge of the crystal.
        
>From the pbc plugins I tried that commands :
        
pbc set {5.7 5.7 5.7} -all
pbc box -color red -style tubes -width 1
        
That draw a nice box but how can I control the position of the box ? For
exemple I would like to set one corner of the box to the origin or to
the coordinate of the atom at the origin.
        
Second question, what about non ortorhombic cell ?
        
Thanks for your help
