Coordinate Tracker Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to track and capture X, Y, and Z drawing coordinates. The precision of the displayed value is determined by the coordinate precision drawing setting.

X, Y, Z

X:

Displays the X coordinate of the cursor location in the drawing.

Y:

Displays the Y coordinate of the cursor location in the drawing.

Z:

Displays the Z coordinate (elevation) of the cursor location in the drawing on the specified surface.

Continue Tracking

Resumes coordinate tracking after it has been suspended due to the entry of the coordinate capture keys.

Send XY

Sends the displayed X and Y values to the command line for use by the active command.

Send Z

Sends the displayed Z value to the command line for use by the active command.

Send XYZ

Sends the displayed X, Y, and Z values to the command line for use by the active command.

Surface

Surface

Displays the name of the surface from which the elevation value is read. Select a surface from the list.

All surfaces in the active drawing are listed. If the drawing contains only one surface, that surface is automatically used to calculate Z values.

Surface Selector

Selects a surface in the drawing.

Coordinate Capture Keys

Coordinate Capture Keys

Displays the keys that suspend coordinate tracking and capture the current coordinates. When the keys are pressed and held down, one by one in the specified order until all keys are pressed, cursor tracking is suspended and the X, Y, and Z values are captured at the current location of the cursor. You can then edit the coordinate values.

Coordinate Capture Keys Selector

Changes the coordinate capture keys. Enter the new coordinate capture keys.
