Let showBZDemo generate BCS style Brillouin zone plot.

Bilbao Crystallographic Server also provides the Brillouin zone plot stored in the PostScript file format, for example, this one:

The following is the similar plot generated by the showBZDemo function in SpaceGroupIrep:

It would be better if showBZDemo can also generate BCS style Brillouin zone plot.

BTW, what's your IDE for Wolfram Language development? I've noticed the following tools/plugins for this purpose:

1. Wolfram Workbench is the official Eclipse-based IDE for the Wolfram Language provided by Wolfram, and is free.
2. Wolfram Language is a plugin of JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA, but not free.

As explained by its name, showBZDemo only shows the BZ as a demonstration. Its purpose is to give a 3D rotatable visulization, facilitating to watch the positions of high-symmetry k points. A 2D static picture is not convenient for this purpose.

As for static 2D pictures, one can simply refer to the figures in the BC book, such as

BTW, what's your IDE for Wolfram Language development? I've noticed the following tools/plugins for this purpose:

1. [Wolfram Workbench](https://www.wolfram.com/workbench/) is the official Eclipse-based IDE for the Wolfram Language provided by Wolfram, and is free.

2. [Wolfram Language](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7232-wolfram-language) is a plugin of JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA, but not free.

Thanks for your information.
I just use mathematica for most of the time, and sometimes I also use VS code.

I tried to open SpaceGroupIrep.wl with Wolfram Workbench. The effect looks very good, as shown in the screenshot below:

As for Wolfram Language, I haven't tried it because it requires users to apply for a license before installation and use. But according to the presentation on its official plug-in site, it's also great.
