Dear Christian,

I think your localization parameters are too paranoidal, steepest
descent with such a small step may be not very efficient.

    WANNIER OPTIMISATION SD
    WANNIER PARAMETER
    1.E-04 1.E-10 0.00 1.E06

According to the tutorial of Alex Kohlmeyer it should work fine with default ones and
Jacobi rotations. Did you try it like this?

CK> Hi,
CK> I try to calculate the Wannier functions for water and with these the
CK> dipole moment of water. This property is always too big.
CK> Can someone help me find the mistake?

CK> Regards,
