Selection Data

Post by manos »

Hi
When I click a point at 3D, at the Python console I get an answer like: "Gui.Selection.addSelection('B1','Part','Body003.DatumLine001.',-8.93197,-0.977341,7.8441)". The last 3 numbers represent X,Y,Z coordinates. But to what origin ?
Thanks folks.

I should have figured it: I tried local coordinates, then Part container coordinates and I stopped .

Thanks a lot demonlibra for your prompt response.
