Hi all,

I am trying to wannierise hfte5, with spin orbit couplings.

My  input.win looks:

use_ws_distance = .true.
num_bands       = 90
num_wann        =  80
exclude_bands=1-132, 223-290
num_iter        = 400
iprint=2

dis_win_max=14
dis_froz_max=13
dis_froz_min = 3
dis_win_min = 3

My bands calculation in dft has k-path as:
K_POINTS {crystal_b}
7
0.25122543 -0.25122543 0 70   !X
0 0 0                    70   !G
0.24908686 0.24908686 0  70   !Y
0.5003123 -0.00213862 0  70   !S
0.5003123 -0.00213862 0.49836313 70 !R
0 0 0.49836313            70     !Z
0 0 0                      1     !G

Whenever I plot dft band vs output from wannier90.x, I get mismatch in x-axis so that I am able to compare the results properly.
Also I have some convergence issue with this input, I am getting delta in final step as-0.5338997E-03 . How can I achieve better convergence and how to fix this band plot issue?

Thanks a lot.
