Create Coordinate system

The Coordinate system can be created from various entities in the result as below, and this example describes how to create the Coordinate System.

• Rigid Body
• FE Node
• Marker

# Name - Set the name of instance.
# ParentInfo - Specifies The path of an parent entity.
animationview.CreateCoordinateSystem("Node_CSYS", "FEBody_01/Node/763")
animationview.CreateCoordinateSystem("BD_001_CSYS", "BD_001")
animationview.CreateCoordinateSystem("BD_001_CM_CSYS", "BD_001/CM")

# Get instance of entity view model
csys = animationview.GetViewModelByName("BD_001_CSYS")
csys.Position = "0, 250, 0"
csys.MarkerSize = 10
