Hi Sayan If you have multiple lattices showing in your diffraction pattern, it may be worthwhile using one of the programs that can process multiple lattices for your integration.
It may also be a good idea to share a few of your images that show the problem with an expert (don’t post the images to ccp4BB!) who may be able to offer you advice.
