Changing the origin of the model

Changing the origin of the model

Changing the origin of the model

(OP)
I want to select a new origin to my model so that when I go  Query- Node -
I get the coordinate of this Node in terms of this new origin. Any help please

RE: Changing the origin of the model

In Viewer, go to "Result > Options > Transformation".

Select User Specified, and then you should be able to pick any user-defined coordinate system for output.

You can create coordinate systems in "Tools > Coordinate System > Create"

Regards

Martin
