Unless you are interested in noncollinear spin, make sure to select "Polarized" spin in the Script Generator, nothing else.

No need to "report" the post :) That's for if you see some inappropriate contents by someone else. I get notifications of the replies to my posts automatically, you can set that up in your profile settings if you don't have it already.

Noncollinear spin is a very new feature, so it's interesting to see how people want to use it. I would appreciate if you could send me your script, I would like to have a look at it, what goes wrong. It looks like something that should work, but I need to see the code to be sure. You can email it if you don't want to post it on the Forum.
