Thx Clemens, - my indexing gives the same setting, correct is -a -b c

Hi Bernhard,

Isn't that actually the same? I think if you want to change the 89.6 to 90.4
beta angle you should do

  abc -> -a -b c

(ie. 2-fold along c). Or in reciprocal space (reindex program):
-h,-k,l

Or am I missing something?

Cheers

Clemens
