Inconsistent Beachball Diagram with Same Strike, Dip, and Rake

[Rinku-274]

I successfully reproduced the solution for the example event shown here. However, when I repeated the process using only a few stations, fixing the strike, dip, and rake values while allowing for a time shift, the resulting beachball diagram changed. Specifically, the fault type switched from left-lateral to right-lateral, even though strike, dip, and rake remained the same. Please review this issue.

Expected solution:

Solution after fixing the orientation:

Hi Rinku, Thank you for the report. It's possible this is related to the change from GMT to matplotlib-- we will need to investigate

This was a very useful report that identifies a rounding or numerical issue that arises when strike and dip are close to 90 degrees. Hoping it can be investigated...
