Description

The Part CoordinateSystem command creates a coordinate system object that can be attached to other objects. A coordinate system is one of several datum objects. A datum object is typically used to attach multiple other objects to. If the position or orientation of a datum object changes, all objects attached to it will follow.

A datum object can also provide a geometric reference for a feature or operation. Depending on its type it may for example be used as a direction vector, a rotation axis or a mirror plane.

Usage

  1. Optionally activate the correct container, for example a PartDesign Body, a Std Part or an Assembly. If multiple containers are active, the datum object is added to the active container that was created first.
  2. Optionally select the geometry the datum object should be attached to.
  3. Press the Create coordinate system button.
  4. The Attachment task panel opens.
  5. If no geometry has been selected: optionally press the OK button to finish the command without attaching the datum object.
  6. For further steps see Part EditAttachment. Continue from step 7 on that page if geometry has been preselected.

Notes

  • A datum object can also be put into a container by dropping it on the container in the Tree view.
  • The attachment of a datum object can be changed by editing its DatiMap Mode property. See Part EditAttachment.
  • The Part DatumPlane and Part DatumLine objects, and the planes and axes of the Part CoordinateSystem object are infinite.

Properties

See also: Property editor.

A Part CoordinateSystem object, formally a Part::LocalCoordinateSystem object, is derived from an App::LocalCoordinateSystem object. All its properties are inherited except those listed under Attachment.

Data

Attachment

The object has the same attachment properties as a Part Part2DObject.

body = doc.addObject("PartDesign::Body", "Body")
lcs = doc.addObject("Part::LocalCoordinateSystem", "LCS")
lcs.Visibility = True
body.addObjects([lcs])
