| name | Schoenflies or International notation of the Laue group |
| axes | [a,b,c] - length of the crystallographic axes |
| angle | [alpha,beta,gamma] - angle between the axes |
Options
| X||a*, Z||c | default alignment of the cartesian coordinate system to the crystal coordinate system |
| X||a, Z||c* | other alignments |
| X||b*, Z||c | |
| X||b, Z||c* | |
| EDAX | the alignment convention used by EDAX / TSL / OIM, i.e. X||a for triclinic, trigonal and hexagonal lattices and the MTEX default otherwise |
