What is coordinate system in SAP CA-VE - SAP Visual Enterprise?

SAP Term: coordinate system

• Component: CA-VE

• Component Name: SAP Visual Enterprise

• Description: A geometric relation used to denote the location of a point in 3D space. The most common is the Cartesian or rectangular coordinate system, whereby points are located by traversing the x-, y-, and z-axes of 3D space. Normally the origin of the coordinate system is defined as 0,0,0. Other coordinate systems can more easily express the coordinates of specific geometric shapes. Example: Use a spherical coordinate system to locate points on the surface of a sphere, and a cylindrical coordinate system to locate points on the face of a cylinder.

• Key Concepts: 
  A coordinate system is a component of SAP Visual Enterprise (CA-VE) that allows users to view 3D models in a virtual environment. It is used to define the position and orientation of objects in 3D space. The coordinate system is based on the Cartesian coordinate system, which uses three axes (X, Y, and Z) to define the position of an object. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The coordinate system can be used to move objects in 3D space. To do this, users can specify the coordinates of the object's position and orientation. This can be done by entering the coordinates into the coordinate system or by using a 3D mouse. Once the coordinates are entered, the object will move to the specified location. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the coordinate system, it is important to remember that the origin (0,0,0) is located at the center of the 3D space. This means that any coordinates entered must be relative to this point. Additionally, it is important to remember that positive values indicate movement in a positive direction along each axis (X, Y, and Z). 
  
  Related Information: 
  The coordinate system is an important part of SAP Visual Enterprise (CA-VE). It allows users to view 3D models in a virtual environment and move objects in 3D space. Additionally, it is related to other components of CA-VE such as lighting and textures.
