This is due to the local rotation matrices, which rotates the frame according to the directions of the highest symmetry operation.
You should see this in your struct file.

PS: with qtl can can change the the coordinate fram back to what you had previously. But you have to put the correct inq file.

Dear All,

I did two calculations for bulk Fe with SOC for magnetization along 110 and 100. Then I plotted band characters (using lapw2 -band -qtl -up/dn). I noticed that now different bands have different character, as if now e.g. d(x2-y2) orbital is defined either along 110 and 100 (basically now different bands are called with different names as if the reference frame has rotated by 45 deg).

I think it would be good to set the reference frame of the bcc crystal lattice, that is independent on the magnetization direction.

I also tried with QTL program (x qtl -dn -so) with different QSPLIT parameter but this does not seem to solve the problem.

I looked at the manual and could not find a quick answer. It seems it has to do with symmetries of the calculation (M is changing mirror planes). But is there a way to set x-y directions to be always with respect to the crystal axes?

Best,
Lukasz
