Dear Fabrizio
The zaxis in the projection input block should be specified in Cartesian coordinates so 1,1,1 corresponds to 1\hat{x} + 1\hat{y} + 1\hat{z}, where \hat{x}, \hat{y} and \hat{z} are the Cartesian unit vectors.
Best wishes,
Arash

   Dear Wannier90 users (and developers),
I have a very simple question: in re-setting the direction of the z axis in seedname.win<http://seedname.win/> (within the projection "environment"), shall we use cartesian units or lattice units?
For example, if we have a trigonal cell, and we want to set the direction of the z axis to (a1, a2, a3) - the lattice vectors - shall we use
z=1,1,1
or
z=0.5,0.866,1
?

   Thank you in advance for your answer(s).

   Kind regards,
