XYZ BOX

[mxkpost]

Hi Is anyone aware of an extension that allows you to see X Y and Z measurements from each other at any point.
I want to be able to select a point and then enter into either of the three boxes.
Currently there is only one box which shows the length.

What is it that you are trying to accomplish? Do you want to see the coordinates of a point in SketchUp? Are you trying to draw an edge that ends at a certain point in space? Are you trying to move something to certain coordinates?

Yes I want to create a point in space by entering XYZ points.

Imagine you are doing a drainage run.
I want to plot the next point from the last one.
5m along X
2m along Y
50mm lower than last on Z

Id also like to see all measurements from one point as above.

If i start a new line, is it possible to see the length of X Y and Z????

You don't need any special extensions or plugins to do this. Just enter the coordinates in the Measurements window. For relative coordinates use the form <x,y,z> and for absolute coordinates use the form [x,y,z]. I used relative coordinates in this example. And then the Text tool will show the coordinates when the leader is anchored to a point in the model.
