			orient command :h3

			[Syntax:]

			orient dim i j k :pre

			dim = {x} or {y} or {z}
			i,j,k = orientation of lattice that is along box direction dim :ul

			[Examples:]

			orient x 1 1 0
			orient y -1 1 0
			orient z 0 0 1 :pre

			[Description:]

			Specify the orientation of a cubic lattice along simulation box
			directions {x} or {y} or {z}. These 3 basis vectors are used when the
			"create_atoms"_create_atoms.html command generates a lattice of atoms.

			The 3 basis vectors B1, B2, B3 must be mutually orthogonal and form a
			right-handed system such that B1 cross B2 is in the direction of B3.

			The basis vectors should be specified in an irreducible form (smallest
			possible integers), though LAMMPS does not check for this.

			[Restrictions:] none

			[Related commands:]

			"origin"_origin.html, "create_atoms"_create_atoms.html

			[Default:]

			orient x 1 0 0
			orient y 0 1 0
			orient z 0 0 1 :pre
