Dear Prof. Laurence Marks Sir,

                                            I have changed the atomic
coordinates & reduced the symmetry to 1_P with the help of the Bilbao
crystallographic server. The calculation is still running & 3 structures
are already generated without showing any error. However, the value of
Gamma is still not changing. Why so?

Thanks & Regards,
