spn density problem

[Matt W]

Hi,

the SPIN-DENSITY cube file places the spin density within the box 
dimensions that you give it going from 0-L where L is that lattice vector 
you give in each direction. The atoms, however, are not centered in the box 
by default, but just are where you put them.

Using VMD to visualize these file I use "pbc wrap" to move the atoms back 
into the same cell as the spin-density. Other codes probably have a similar 
option. Or you CENTER_COORDINATES in the topology section or otherwise 
ensure all atoms are in the main supercell box.
