Coordinate Reading

6.1 Coordinate Reading

Click the "Coordinate Read" button in the toolbar and point to any point in the model with the mouse to display the coordinates, Height above ground, aspect and aspect of the terrains where the point is located, E-W slope and N-S slope of the terrains where the point is located.

When the mouse points to the array, combine device and transformer in the model, the basic information such as the tag of the device pointed to by the mouse will be additionally displayed.

In the displayed coordinates, "SU coordinates" are the coordinates of the model in SketchUp, and "geodetic coordinates" are the actual geodetic coordinates of the model obtained after setting the "origin coordinates". For the setting of "origin coordinates", please refer to the "Project Settings" and "Preparation of CAD Topographic Maps" sections.
