USPEX 10.6 VCNEB continues running although all printed RMS forces are below ConvThreshold

[Jeff Armstrong]

Dear USPEX users and Developers,

In USPEX 10.6 VCNEB, which exact RMS force is compared with ConvThreshold for termination? My printed lattice and atomic VCNEB RMS forces are already below 0.03 eV/Å for all images, but the calculation continues.

Why the external pressure is =0?'
