how to tranform a ProPoint3d by changing reference coordinate system?

[ajoyvarghese]

I want to tranform propoint3d of curve end point by userdefined coordinate system
for this i tried the following steps
1. get x_vector, y_vector, z_vector,orgin (from ProGeomitemdata) from user defined coordinate system
2. construct a ProMatrix using these inputs (ProMatrixInit())
3. Transformed propoint3d with ProMatrix as input

But the resultant Ptopoint3d is not equal to manually measured value (Analysis-> Geometry -> point)

For example if user defined Csys is created o nthe end point of the curve , and if tranformed that point3d , resultant value should be 0 0 0 ideally ,but toolkit is giving some other result

If you got any idea , please give me a reply

Ajoy,
Did you consider the rotations of coordinate system?

[ajoyvarghese]

i used ProPntTrfEval for transformation . this includes both shift and rotation

[bfrandsen]

Ajoy, did you normalize the ProMatrix?

no,how could i ?

Ajoy,

Try the ProUtilMatrixNormalize function in the attached files. You need
to do this after you initialize your matrix and before you transform the
point.
