Symmetry operator combinations:
Rotation axis and perpendicular translation: Generates a rotation axis of the same order situated on the bisector of the translation vector with a height -counted from it- of ½ of the translation vector times the cotangent of half of the angle of rotation.

Rotation axis and parallel translation: Generates a screw axis.

Rotation axis and general translation: Generates a screw axis of the same order situated on the bisector of the translation vector with a height -counted from it- of ½ of the translation vector times the cotangent of half of the angle of rotation.
