About the band setting issue

Dear @alex
I noticed that the band properties and bandgaps output in the amset.log file are inconsistent with what I set in settings.yaml. Is this correct?
Looking forward to your reply!

Can you paste (not screenshot) the full log file?

Dear ALEX,
This is the output file I calculated, please help me check if there are any errors.

If you look further down in the log file you can see it applied a scissor operator to the band structure.
