The multiplicity and the Wyckoff letter say how many copies of the site the group makes in one cell and on which kind of symmetry element the site sits; the 24 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 32 operations. Press Wyckoff under Colour to see the sites, and tick a symmetry element on the left to see which atoms lie on it.

How to read the label

A2B5C2D3_tI24_139_e_ag_e_be-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol tI24, then the space-group number 139, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (O: 2a; Sr: 2b; Cl: 4e; Sc: 4e; Sr: 4e; O: 8g). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
