I did load the coordinates from a .pdb file...Do you have any suggestions for avoiding the overlap?

If you don't have a pdb file and choose to use 'combine', you
have to be ready to select one of the units using xleap selection
tools and drag/rotate it to where you need it.

Ideally 'combine' would not overlap the units, but this is a hard
problem - perhaps it could just create virtual boxes around them
and use these to avoid overlap, issuing a warning to clean up the
bond between the units. Note thatg leap minimization is useful but
still does not take vdw into account, so overlaps are still an issue.
