But theres more to this than just symb_pos_x etc, He was after something that would show it in relation to a local project origin, not the world origin. i found that the global variables GLOB_WORLD_ORIGO_OFFSET_X etc. which are supposed to locate XYZ positions in relation to a Temporary Origin do not work in 9.0, they always come in as Zero, wherever the object or the local origin is. Couldnt find anything about XYZ location in earlier AC-talk conversations.
I also made an object using the SAMPLE script provided by GS to illustrate the use of these GVs, and they dont work in that object either!!

Hello David,
The two Globals are new in AC9. As I don't believe, that they are not working straight from the start, maybe they have to be used in another environment. As GLOB_SUN AZIMUTH is only available in 3Dmode. Maybe GS can give some hints about it. I tried the sample script too and got only world- and object position.
