Coordinate Dimensioning

Does anyone have a tool that can callout x,y, and z coordinates. I currently have a 3-d shape with varying angles, see attached assembly and part files, and would like to callout the exterior points instead of have to dimension everything out. I am hoping to do something similar to the attached pdf sketch. I know that there is no stock tool capable of doing this, and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure what you mean by callout x, y, z, but if you want to place some custom annotations on a drawing, you can either use a SketchedSymbol or overlay some graphics using a DrawingSketch.

 

There are samples for both in the API Help Files.

 

Let us know if you have more spcific questions on the topic.

 

Thank you,

Philippe.
