NEW_CS <method> <name>

Create a new coordinate system. There are 4 methods that you can use to create a CS.

NEW_CS 3P <name> <x1> <z1> <z1> <x2> <z2> <z2> <x3> <z3> <z3>

NEW_CS XY <name> <x1> <z1> <z1>

NEW_CS YZ <name> <x1> <z1> <z1>

NEW_CS XZ <name> <x1> <z1> <z1>

Only 1 point is required for XY, XZ and YZ. For 3P, you must provide 6 more values for the XYZ positions of the second and third points.

NEW_CS XY, 3, "NewXY", 3, 6, -1.5

This will create a new CS, parallel to the XY plane, with its origin at X 3, Y 6, Z -1.5

For an example macro see Cs_List
