Description
The Std AxisCross command toggles the axis cross in the active 3D view.
The axis cross consists of three arrows representing the positive X, Y and Z axis of the global coordinate system. Their common start point is the origin of the global coordinate system.
The axis cross (the letters are not part of the axis cross)
Usage
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
Notes
- FreeCAD can display a smaller coordinate system indicator in the bottom right corner of 3D views: Edit → Preferences... → Display → 3D View → Show coordinate system in the corner. See Preferences Editor.
- The Navigation Cube also includes a coordinate system indicator.
Preferences
- The default for the axis cross can be changed in the preferences: Edit → Preferences... → Display → 3D view → Show axis cross by default. See Preferences Editor.
Scripting
See also: FreeCAD Scripting Basics.
To toggle the axis cross use the setAxisCross
method of the ActiveView object. This method is not available if FreeCAD is in console mode.
import FreeCADGui
FreeCADGui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.setAxisCross(True)
FreeCADGui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.hasAxisCross()
