IBAND tag for spin-polarized calculation

Dear VASP users,

I am trying to plot partial charge density of a band with the IBAND tag. In the KPUSE tag the k-point number that I need to specify will be same for both up and down spin components. I would like to know how to specify the band number (IBAND) for up and down spin components separately while calculating the partial charge density in a spin-polarized calculation.

Thanks, and best regards,
Ritam

Perhaps this small note in our wiki directly answers your question:
