) As CoordinateSystem

Parameters

RelativeToCoordSystem

Specifies the CoordinateSystem object relative to which the coordinate system is to be placed.

AnyEdgeToDefineOrigin

Required if the origin is specified based on a key point.

KeyPointFlags

Value	Description
igKeyPointCallback	Keypoint Type - Callback
igKeyPointCenter	Keypoint Type - Center
igKeyPointEnd	Keypoint Type - End
igKeyPointHorizontalSilhouette	Keypoint Type - Horizontal Silhouette
igKeyPointInteriorNode	Keypoint Type - Interior Node
igKeyPointInteriorPole	Keypoint Type - Interior Pole
igKeyPointMajorAxis	Keypoint Type - Major Axis
igKeyPointMiddle	Keypoint Type - Middle
igKeyPointMinorAxis	Keypoint Type - Minor Axis
igKeyPointNonDefining	Keypoint Type - Non-defining
igKeyPointPointOnly	Keypoint Type - Point Only
igKeyPointStart	Keypoint Type - Start
igKeyPointVerticalSilhouette	Keypoint Type - Vertical Silhouette

Required if the origin is specified based on a key point. A member of KeyPointType constant set that specifies where the key point lies on the edge.

XOffset

Specifies the displacement along the x-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

YOffset

Specifies the displacement along the y-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

ZOffset

Specifies the displacement along the z-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

XRotation

Specifies the angular orientation about the x-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

YRotation

Specifies the angular orientation about the y-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

ZRotation

Specifies the angular orientation about the z-axis of the relative to coordinate system.

Remarks

The AddRelativeToCoordinateSystem method adds a CoordinateSystem relative to the specified coordinate system. The offset and orientation values will be applied relative to the input coordinate system.
