Re: [Pw_forum] xcrysden shows only primitive structure for output of QE
You might try findsym: http://stokes.byu.edu/iso/findsym.php , where you enter the primitive vectors and lattice coordinates, and the program gives you the space group, conventional cell, and Wyckoff positions. For Linux there is also downloadable command line version: http://stokes.byu.edu/iso/isolinux.php On 11/28/14 9:11 AM, James Lee wrote: Dear Tone, and developers of QE: Thanks for the reply. however, it will be interesting that the next versions of QE provide the conventional cell output in conjunction with the primitive one.

This is correct. For output, xcrysden relies only on the data stored in the output file. Because only the primitive vectors are printed in the output, xcrysden shows only primitive lattice. If you want to see also the conventional lattice then transform pw.x output file to XSF file (using pwo2xsf.sh filter) and then supplement the XSF file with the corresponding convetional vectors, specified by the CONVVEC card (see: http://www.xcrysden.org/doc/XSF.html#__toc__4 ) Regards, Tone -- Anton Kokalj J.

[Pw_forum] xcrysden shows only primitive structure for output of QE
Hi When I use ibrav=0 and conventional cell coordinates, xcrysden shows conventional cell for vc-relax output, and everything is ok. when I use ibrav=2, xcrysden can show both primitive and conventional cell for input file, but for its vc-relax output, xcrysden only shows optimized primitive cell. I need the optimized structure in conventional form. I use QE5.1.1, and Xcrysden 1.5.60. Regards James Can't remember your password? Do you need a strong and secure password? Use Password manager!
