Local Coordinates

[enriquelvarez]

Hi everybody!

I explain you my problem: I have two Coordinate Systems, a global one and a local one.

I define a node and I-DEAS ask me the coordinates of this node. Even when I define the node referenced to the local System of coordinates, I-DEAS consider this coordinates referenced to the globan system and not to the local system.

My question is: Is there any way to introduce node's coordinates in local system?


Thank's very much

You have to set the sketch in place icon on XY plane of the local CS and only than Ideas will consider the origin of that local CS to be 0,0,0.
