Name Dimension Type Description
Time DateFormat Real Number Time.
Reference x DistanceUnit Real Number First component of the displacement vector that locates the center of the selected plane in the reference coordinate system. Defines projection of the displacement vector onto the x-axis of the reference coordinate system.
Reference y DistanceUnit Real Number Second component of the displacement vector that locates the center of the selected plane in the reference coordinate system. Defines projection of the displacement vector onto the y-axis of the reference coordinate system.
Reference z DistanceUnit Real Number Third component of the displacement vector that locates the center of the selected plane in the reference coordinate system. Defines projection of the displacement vector onto the z-axis of the reference coordinate system.
Magnitude DistanceUnit Real Number Magnitude of the displacement vector that locates selected point in the reference coordinate system, i.e. distance of the selected point from the origin of the reference coordinate system.
