<div>Dear Developers and Users,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I need help on these three problems.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) I tried to plot band character by editing case.insp as explained in the user guide, but band character for the selected orbital is not showing. I run a TiC example as test-case and it works fine, what could have been the problem?
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2) I run Mg(OH)2 exercise (as contained in the workshop documents) for the optimization of positions. I noticed that the primitive cell and the conventional cell of the
<span>Mg(OH)2 is the same when viewed using xcrysden, is this always the case H lattice or there <span><span>are</span></span> some exceptions?</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>3) <span>Please is this command <b><span><span><span>min_lapw -i 150 -p</span></span></span></b>
<b>-NI </b>correct?<b> </b>I tried it for non spin polarized case, but the scf terminated at 40 circles with forces not converged.</span> I already have previous scf converged for volume optimization.<br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Thanks for your time, looking forward for help.</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>With kind regards.</span><br>
