Dear Developers,

I find the tab NBANDSGWLOW is not active in VASP.5.3.2, isn't it?

each time whatever value of NBANDSGWLOW I set (with NBANDSGW) , the GW calculation always start from the 1st band (from the OUTCAR).

is there anyway to fix this?
Thanks

This feature is not documented.
When only NBANDSGW is defined the code sets NBANDSGWLOW=1 .
Have you tried to define NBANDSGWLOW as input parameter in INCAR?
