Hi,

 

>> I can't figure how to show the X/Y directions by inserting UCS

Not sure which types of objects you are referring to when you speak about "machines". Are these blocks or 3D-Solids or how is your drawing structured?

If you want to create lists of positions (X/Y/Z) then fields or dataextraction to create tables don't work as they

 

I would (of course depending on the number of items) ...

  • Create one block "A" at the factories base point.
  • Create a block "B" for each of the machines at the position inside the machine you like.
  • Inside block "B" you can have attributes which can contain fields, there you can calculate the DeltaX by using the X-position of the current machine block MINUS the X-position of the block "A" ... same for Delta-Y.

If the factory is rotated so it's not just X1-X2 and Y1-Y2 then the formula might get more tricky, but for a limited number of objects this could work well.

 

If your machines already are blocks you might also use command _DATAEXTRACTION and use formulas for DeltaX and DeltaY like shown in the screenshot. Same as before, if the factory is rotated it's more complex.

Hope to have your question understood correct!
