Functional Details

This tool generates an x,y,z position from mouse-driven input. see "Using Probes (Cursors)" in IBM Visualization Data Explorer User's Guide.

Note: Because the output is in the units of the rendered object, the result may be unexpected if you have scaled or translated the object before rendering it, since the x,y,z point will be the transformed units.
