Description :
|
When making a compound the component will generally have
symmetries that are also symmetries of the compound. It
could be difficult to align a component into a position
where symmetries are shared using rotations and
translations, as an alternative there is a facility to do
this directly by symmetry. The option -y list will list
all arrangements of the component and final symmetry
according to how the component can be aligned to share
a common symmetry group with the kaleidoscope. To make the
model rerun the command but replace 'list' with the number
and any optional realignment. Running this for the previous
cube example, produces a list with 20 items
poly_kscope cube -s Ih -y list
The last number is 19 and corresponds to the compound of
5 cubes, as in the previous example
poly_kscope cube -s Ih -y 19 | antiview
In the following example the cube will be aligned on a
C3v axis, and the optional realignment translates the
cube 2 units along the icosahedral 3-fold axis.
View this model with the command
poly_kscope cube -m f,compound -s Ih -y 8,:2 | antiview -v 0.05
