Location Enter the coordinates of the Start and End locations. The coordinates are expressed in different forms noted below. Input Start Location Specify the coordinates of a Start Location [(ABS x, y, z)]. Specify the coordinates of an End Location [(ABS x, y, z), (REL dx, dy. dz)]. <Methods of Entering Coordinates> ABS x, y. z Enter 3-D coordinates for an absolute location in space. Enter a distance relative to the Start Location using 3-D coordinates.
When we enter coordinates using the mouse, the coordinates are automatically entered by a left-click on the desired point, without having to press the Apply button. However, when coordinates are typed in, either the Enter key or the Apply button needs to be pressed. |
