Dear All,
I am using the latest WIEN2k_08.2 release on a unix platform.
I am attempting to calculate the eigenvalues for my system in the full
Brillouin zone. I wish to do so using LDA+U with S-O coupling.
I am running the execution commands in the following sequence as
recommended so that I may ramp up the U slowly: runsp_lapw save_lapw case
initso_lapw runsp_lapw -so save_lapw case runsp_lapw -so -orb
The question I have relates to a phrase in the UG on p.83 under the ORB
function: "The presence of such an orbital field may lower the symmetry. In
particular the complex version of LAPW1 must be used."
My question is, if the symmetry is lowered by the orbital field will the
code automatically detect this and run lapw1c? In my case.dayfile this is
not occuring for the -orb run:

Otherwise how do I know if I need to direct lapw1c to run and how would I
do it?
