Define axis by coordinates

This function allows you to view the existing axis coordinates on a data entry form and change the axis coordinates if required. After viewing or changing the axis coordinates the new axis is drawn on the screen.

To run this function: Choose Create > Section axis by coordinates, or...

  • In the Function Chooser, type DEFINE AXIS BY COORDS, and press ENTER.

Axis start - Y, X and Z

Enter the Y, X and Z coordinates for the start of the axis line.

Axis end - Y, X and Z

Enter the Y, X and Z coordinates for the end of the axis line.

Result

A line is drawn to represent the string file axis. If no line appears then it may either be because the axis coordinates are not within the coordinate extents of the current viewport or because the axis length is zero.
