To View Cursor Coordinates Using the Coordinate Tracker

Use the Coordinate Tracker to view the drawing X and Y coordinates of the cursor and a Z coordinate value read from a specified surface.

1. Click View tabPalettes panelCoordinate Tracker Find.
2. In the Coordinate Tracker, in the Surface list, select the surface from which Z values (levels) are read.

   If the drawing contains only one surface, it is automatically selected.

3. Move the cursor within the boundary of the selected surface.

   The drawing X and Y coordinates are updated from the cursor position within the drawing. The Z coordinate value is read from the specified surface when the cursor is within the surface boundary. If you move the cursor outside of the surface boundary, the Z value is not shown.

4. To suspend cursor tracking and capture the current X, Y, and Z coordinate values, do the following:
   • Enter the keys listed in the Coordinate Capture Keys edit box by pressing, and not releasing, each key in the specified order until you are holding all the specified keys down.
   • Release all keys.

   Coordinate tracking is suspended and the current X, Y, and Z coordinates are captured.

5. Optionally, send the X, Y, and Z coordinates to the command line for use in the current command. You can edit the values before you send them.
6. To resume cursor tracking, click .
