Hi all,

I 'm developing an ACT extension for Ansys Mechanical. In my extension, I want to use local node coordinates of nodes. But I don't understand how to do it.

Acess to the global node coordinates can be performed using for example
Code:
ExtAPI.DataModel.MeshDataByName("Global").Nodes[i].X
Information about local coordinates systems can be retrieved to CoordinteSystem class. But it doesn't contain any methods for coordinate transformation.

Developing own util for this purpose is possible but too expensive. Also, I really don't want to use APDL commands.

Who has any idea for solving this problem?
