This program plots stereonets for all three dimensional point groups, including non-crystallographic symmetries. Rotation axes are in red, mirror planes in black, horizontal rotation axes in blue. The primitive circle is gray unless it is also a mirror plane. Multiple points can be plotted and selected by color.
