Monoclinic setting symbols (unique axis is underlined)

Unique axis b		Unique axis c		Unique axis a
	$[{\bf c}{\underline{\bar{\bf b}}}{\bf a}]$	$[{\bf c}{\bf a}\underline{\bf b}]$	$[{\bf a}{\bf c}\underline{\bar{\bf b}}]$	$[{\underline{\bf b}{\bf c}{\bf a}}]$	$[{\underline{\bar{\bf b}}{\bf a}{\bf c}}]$
$[{{\bf b}\underline{\bf c}{\bf a}}]$	$[{{\bf a}\underline{\bar{\bf c}}{\bf b}}]$		$[{{\bf b}{\bf a}\underline{\bar{\bf c}}}]$	$[{\underline{\bf c}{\bf a}{\bf b}}]$	$[{\underline{\bar{\bf c}}{\bf b}{\bf a}}]$
$[{{\bf c}\underline{\bf a}{\bf b}}]$	$[{{\bf b}\underline{\bar{\bf a}}{\bf c}}]$	$[{{\bf b}{\bf c}\underline{\bf a}}]$	$[{{\bf c}{\bf b}\underline{\bar{\bf a}}}]$		$[{\underline{\bar{\bf a}}{\bf c}{\bf b}}]$

Note: An interchange of two axes involves a change of the handedness of the coordinate system. In order to keep the system right-handed, one sign reversal is necessary.
