Is 2.875 eV the value of :GAP in case.scf? If yes, it looks like if the Fermi 
energy
is not placed correctly on the DOS, because the gap between the valence and
conduction band seems to be close to 2.875 eV.
Could it be due to the broadening in case.int? Try to execute tetra with a 
reduced (or no) broadening.

Subject: [Wien] Confusion about DOS

Dear Wien2k users,

                   I have plotted DOS for material with converged SCF using 
HSE06. I got a bandgap of 2,875 eV. However, in the plotted DOS it can be seen 
that a small amount of DOS from the valence band is crossing the Fermi energy. 
I have attached the plot to this mail.

Is this crossing can be neglected or I should have to change some other 
parameters like broadening etc.

with regards,
