 ''This will rotate a 3D model so its symmetric axes are aligned on the predefined axes''

== Usage ==
 align3dsym  <input file> <output file> sym=<Cn,Dn> [mask=<rad>] [imask=<rad>] [refine]

=== Parameters ===
 || <input file>||Source file||
 || <output file>||Destination file||
 ||sym=<Cn,Dn>||Apply an n-fold rotational symmetry to each image||
 ||[mask=<rad>]||Outside mask ||
 ||[imask=<rad>]||Inner mask applied only for location purposes. Not applied to output.||
 ||[refine]||Used when the orientation is off by less than 10 degrees||
 Typical usage: align3dsym threed.0a.mrc threed.0a.mrc sym=c7

== Description ==
This program will rotate 3D model so it's rotational symmetries are aligned on the predefined axes. The model MUST be centered properly before this program is used. By default the n-fold symmetric axis is z, and a 2-fold axis (for D symmetry) lies along x. Note that this program does not currently work on icosahedral particles.
