halfcoupler Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Hi, I want to read out the 3D coordinates of certain positions in my drawing and note them on the drawing. Just at the moment I'm clicking on an object that has its center in the position I want to label, copy the x,y,z values from the OIP and paste them to the drawing beside the object. That's ok for 10 objects, but maybe anyone here knows an elegant way to do this for 100 or more objects ? Maybe it is possible to create a Marionette that produces a label with each click similar to the 3D labels in spotlight fixtures ? Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I started this thread a couple of years ago which has recently been revived...... https://forum.vectorworks.net/index.php?/topic/44691-x-and-y-coordinates/ Quote Link to comment
halfcoupler Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Hi markdd, great! I'll check this. Meanwhile I'm wondering wether I could misuse the hoist tool for that... Quote Link to comment

The ideal tool would be the Stake Object, but its not currently available in Spotlight. There is a wishlist item you could upvote - Kevin Quote Link to comment
