This is actually quite new to me as definition of preferred orientation or 
better texture. Until now I thought that in the case of preferred orientations 
the measured intensity is proportional to the volume fraction of grains 
oriented in a certain direction…….

We actually use preferred orientation (texture) to help structure solution, and 
I found more easy to model them than to eliminate them. But may be is just me.
