The
Coordinate
column displays X1, X2 or X3, depending on the Dimension
and Transform Dimension. The
Coordination
mode is
Primary
for all the axes.
Select

to configure a Cartesian coordinate system with orientation
support. The
Dimension
and
Transform Dimension
values are automatically set
to 6 and are unavailable to modify.
The
Coordinate
column displays the World Cartesian Coordinate names X, Y,
and Z for the Primary axes and Rx, Ry, and Rz for the Orientation axes. Rx is the
rotation around the X axis, Ry is the rotation around the Y axis, and Rz is the
rotation around the Z axis, with X-Y-Z fixed angle rotation.
In the
Axis Name
column, associate an axis tag to each coordinate.
