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 20 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 16 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

AB3C_oI20_74_e_eg_a-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol oI20, then the space-group number 74, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Pb: 4a; Ba: 4e; O: 4e; O: 8g). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
