Tracking

image\StatusBar_shg.gif

image\fcw5127.gifThe Tracking Indicator displays the coordinates of the cursor location during commands and whenever CC3 asks you to select a point.

CC3 displays coordinates in the format you select. Click UNITS to select a different distance display format. CC3 rounds the display to the number of decimal places selected in the Distance display format section of the Units dialog box.

Please note: The number of decimal places selected for the distance display format affects dialog boxes and the LIST command, as well as tracking. The actual coordinates you select with the cursor are rounded to the nearest snap point if snap locking is on.

Tracking, if on, normally displays absolute x,y coordinates. Simply click on the Tracking Indicator to change the display mode:

T: Absolute

tells CC3 to display cursor movement in absolute coordinates, as x and y distances from (0,0).

T:@ Relative

tells CC3 to display cursor movement in relative coordinates, as x and y distances from the reference point.

T:< Polar

tells CC3 to display cursor movement in polar coordinates, as an angle and distance from the reference point.

Off

turns tracking off. Click again to cycle through the other tracking modes.
