About reading Point Coordinates in Different Axis Systems

When reading point coordinates to utilize them in Knowledge rules or formulas, you can use the Point.coord() Knowledge functions (in the Measures dictionary) also for reading the coordinates in specific axis systems instead of the current axis system.

The figure below shows two axis systems:

  • The current axis system (green) with the origin G with the coordinates (0,0,0).
  • A local axis system (red) with the origin R with the coordinates (11,1,0).

In the local axis system, the coordinated of G are (4,-5,0) and those of R (0,0,0).
