Can you supply a CIF file with space group, so we can see what you expect ? Can you check the CIF yourself by e.g. Mercury ? Automatic conversion from CIF is most reliable method for most DFT programs input creation ...

However, when I visualize the structure using XCrySDen from my SCF input file (ba2zrs4.scf.in<http://ba2zrs4.scf.in>), the crystal does not appear as expected. The atomic positions and symmetry seem incorrect even before running any calculation. To help identify the issue, I have attached: a) ba2zrs4.scf.in<http://ba2zrs4.scf.in>: My input file used for visualization. b) unitcell.png: The structure as visualized in XCrySDen. Could anyone kindly review my input file and advise if there is any mistake in the lattice vectors, atomic positions, or crystal symmetry definition? Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Thank you very much for your time and support. Best regards, Mst.
