Alex, Symexp creates object with names of the form:
prefixSSXXYYZZ After the prefix, the first two digits SS are the symmetry operation. The next six digits correspond to the relative integral unit cell translation XXYYZZ *after* an initial unit cell translation intended to bring the translated atoms back into closest adjacency. In other words, the exact XXYYZZ will depend on the atoms in the object, since that will determine the initial "origin" 000000 translation. Nevertheless, the actual symmetry mates displayed should be equivalent, even if their names differ slightly. Are you finding otherwise? Cheers, Warren -- mailto:war...@delanoscientific.com Warren L.
