ANSYS: Convert global coords to screen coords?

I wish to annotate a line plot in the Ansys GUI with /pcirc.
but rather than use graphical picking I'd like to be able to do
this in the associated script (file.inp). However Ansys
interprets the global coordinates as screen coordinates
and the circle annotation ends up in the wrong place.

Is there any way to convert global coordinates to screen
coordinates (or vice versa)? I'm actually using cylindrical
coordinates and 2D annotation and the GUI is in the rz-plane.

Thankyou,
Roger Young
