Located Along An Axis

Dialog boxes where you can set location dependencies            Shared Dialog Box
Locates an entity at an offset distance along a selected axis of a construction frame. Learn about Construction Frames.
 
Note:  
Because hardpoints have no orientation, you cannot use them to define this type of location dependency. Learn about Hardpoints.
 
For the option:
Do the following:
Construction Frame
Enter the name of the construction frame along whose axis the location offset will be applied.

Tips on Entering Object Names in Text Boxes.
Distance
Enter the location offset from the construction frame along the axis specified by Axis.

If the entity you are orienting is a construction frame, you can parameterize the location offset. You can, for example, use a parameter variable to define the location offset.

Example: (pvs_length).
Axis
Select to apply the offset distance along either the x-, y-, or z-axis of the construction frame.
