Hi Rhine, Crysfire requires your peak positions to be ordered from lower to higher Q or 2theta (being Q=1/(d^2) in crysfire, instead of q=4*pi*sin(theta)/lambda) but they both grow in the same direction), which means higher to lower d-spacing. I don't think there is a command to order your peak positions after they are loaded, you'll need to load them again in the correct order. I hope this helps. Leo
