That clarifies my doubt. Thank you very much.

Best,
Shivesh

Subject: Re: [QE-users] Format of FFT grid for Potential

For instance, my FFT grid has dimensions 40x54x180. If I understand correctly, 
this means:
1) The lattice constant along 'a' is divided into 40 points, along 'b' is 
divided into 54 points and so on..

in general, what is divided into 40, 54, 180 points are the three primitive 
lattice vectors generating the lattice

2) There are a total of 388800 (40*54*180) points printed, which correspond to 
the potential at each point , starting with varying 'x' first, then 'y' and 
then 'z'. Meaning,
the first 40 points in the output should be (0,0,0), (0.025,0,0) ... (1,0,0).

(1,0,0) would be point 41 but is not in the grid, because it is equal to 
(0,0,0) (if your plot seems to miss something, that's why). Same for the two 
other directions. Xcrysden should output data in the same order as in FFT 
arrays: see point 6.3 of the developers' manual,  
https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/developer_man/developer_man.html

The next 40 points should be                   (0,1,0), (0.025,1,0) .. (1,1,0).

Am I right in this regard? Any help would be much appreciated.
