[Pw_forum] input structure for ibrav=9

Dear QE users,

I have some problem in introducing a base-centered orthorhombic
structure (ibrav=9) to QE.

I have entered the cell parameters in A, B, C, cosAB, cosBC, cosAC, and
atomic positions in fractional coordinate (crystal) in my input file;
however, Xcrysden does not show me what I expected to see. for example, not
all the angles are 90 degrees.

Lets say I have a crystal with space group Cmcm (#63) and a=2.406, b=4.615,
c=2.749 (A), and one atom at (0, 0.0703, 0.25)
Now, what do you put for A,B,C and the atomic positions?

Thanks for your time!

P.S: The numbers are taken from the table 2 of the supplemental material
of: Phys. Rev. B 84, 104118 (2011)
