[Wien] partial DOSs in monoclinic structure

Of course this is projected onto a cartesian system. It depends a bit what kind of
monoclinic system you have (monoclinic angle=gamma ?). You may look into
SRC_nn/dirlat.f

Usually the lattice b and c axes coincide with y and z and there's a difference between
a and x.

You can use the qtl program to rotate the coordinate system as you like when partial
charges (case.qtl) are calculated.

with respect to a conventional cartesian coordinates. But, since the structure ismonoclinic, i.e., the basis vectors are

not orthogonal, it is not quite clear how this plotting is realized in Wien2k in this case. Are the orbitals projected

onto the non-orthogonal basis vectors, or on some cartesian coordinate system.If the latter is true, how this cartesian

system is related to the basis?
