[Octopus-users] TDPolarizationEquivAxes question

Dear Octopus Users.

I'm running some time dependant linear response calculations of metallic clusters.
Is the variable TDPolarizationEquivAxes used in any fashion during the octopus run? By my understanding all that variable achieves is to be added to the multipoles output to be used as input for the oct-cross-section utility. Therefore if that variable was incorrectly set in the inp file it would simply be a matter of resetting it to the correct value in the multipoles files before running oct-cross-section, rather than having to re-run the quite lengthy td calculation. Is this correct or is there some other function that I'm missing?
Thankyou for your help.

Sincerely,
