Getting point coordinates relative to WCS in NX Open

[PrintScaffold]

Hello everyone!

Obviously a very common problem, but I could not figure it out yet.
Using NX Open, I need to get coordinates of points relative to WCS.
In VB example I've seen a curious construct: NX.CoordinateSystem.MapAcsToWcs.
Does it exist for C#? I could not find it.
Or any other working method would be fine.

The Csys.MapPoint function will convert coordinates. It is an API function, so it is available to all the languages that the NX API supports.

VB example:

This is a function in the SNAP library -- it's full name is Snap.NX.CoordinateSystem.MapAcsToWcs.
It's documented in the SNAP Refernce Guide, and example code is given.
Note that there are two versions -- one for mapping points, and one for mapping vectors.

SNAP is just a .NET library, so you call any SNAP function from C# code.
