Dear all, I have the two latest versions of transiesta installed on my computer. The older version does not print any errors for my electrode positions but the newer version (siesta-4.0b-485) prints this error for a 100 percent identical calculation: "The electrodes are not situated in the same coordinates. Please correct." and stops.
I have read a similar thread about this issue and the suggestions therein but I think the newer version of transiesta falls short of understanding the fact that the positions of the electrodes may not be identical (same/equal) but they can be equivalent. Particularly, this sentence can be found in the manual of both versions: ".... Here, equivalent means that they can be made equal by a simple translation in space." I would be really thankful to anyone who helps me understand the issue. Bests, Mohammad,
