It also has the same/analogous bug in space group P3 with Pointless
v1.2.10 - I wasn't sure if I was missing something obvious and went back
to using my default combination of REINDEX/SCALEIT for the tests and
reindexing.

An output file is created on hklout with or without the -copy flag.
The problem is why is it picking the unity matrix (solution #2) for the
reindexing operator rather than the first matrix (-h -k l) that it
identifies under reindexing (which is clearly the correct answer).

Hi Bob,
including a -copy flag might not be totally pointless:

I'm hoping someone can help me with a pointless problem. I am
trying to reindex
data into an orientation that I used to solve the structure
initially. While
I can get pointless to give me the reindexing needed to make the
new data match
the old data for the project, when I ask it to write the data to
HKLOUT it does
not carry out the reindexing. I was under the impression from
the documentation
it would write out the reindexed solution. Am I doing something
wrong or have
I found a bug in my particular space group. I seem to recall
getting this to work
on a different project in the past. I have also tried a number
of different
versions of pointless, and all give me the same results. The
output file is shown below.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
Bob Nolte
