Dear siesta user,

I made the supercell of one of the test file of siesta package BaTiO3
(a=4.006 Ang) . And when I visulize its xyz file it gives me the right
structure of Batio3 with right angle and bond length . Then I choose one of
the cubic cell from the supercell to make the  cubic structure of it, when
I choose fractional coordinate of that cell it gives me the structure with
reduced bond length  and when used scaled coordinate it gives structure
with increased  bond length. and when I used NotScaledCartesian cordinates
siesta will show me the error

error   atoms too close rij = ooo ang


cholesky factorisation in rdiag
stop from the node zero :0

this the output of supercell  generated siesta:

I select atomic cordinates from these files.Please help me out from this
problem because same problem occurs in my other structure also. I shall be
really thankful to siesta users.
