Set here the properties of a crystallographic or atomic direction.

<h3>Reference</h3>

GAMGI can handle crystallographic directions, related with a cell containing
the relevant crystallographic information, and atomic directions, defined by
two non-coincident atoms.

<p/>

To create crystallographic directions, set <b>Reference</b> to <b>Cell</b>.
GAMGI automatically shows a <b>Cell</b> entry, plus <b>u</b>, <b>v</b>, <b>w</b>
entries to indicate the direction indices, plus a <b>Vectors</b> menu, to select 
the cell vectors to use, <b>Conventional</b> or <b>Primitive</b>. For the sake of 
simplicity, GAMGI does not accept 4-indice notation for planes or directions 
in hexagonal cells.

<p/>

Pressing the mouse over a cell in the current layer, the cell identification
is automatically written in the <b>Cell</b> entry. When a valid cell is found
and its <b>Type</b> is <b>Projection</b>, the default <b>Line</b> page
is automatically replaced by a <b>Projection</b> page.

<p/>

By default, only one family of crystallographic directions is created.
To create a set of families simultaneously, press the button <b>Set</b> (TODO).

<p/>

When <b>Reference</b> is set to <b>Atoms</b>, GAMGI automatically shows
two <b>Atom</b> entries. Pressing the mouse sucessively over two
non-colinear atoms in the current layer, the two entries become occupied
and the direction defined. After pressing <b>Ok</b>, an error is shown 
if the atoms are coincident.
