Defines the global coordinates for the starting (From) node of a disconnected element.

Node

Specifies the node number for the starting end of the disconnected element. You can change the node number to another valid node number to reconnect the element. All following elements move with respect to the new node number.

X Coordinate

Specifies the global X coordinate for the starting node. You can change the coordinate value. All following elements move with respect to the new coordinate.

Y Coordinate

Specifies the global Y coordinate for the starting node. You can change the coordinate value. All following elements move with respect to the new coordinate.

Z Coordinate

Specifies the global Z coordinate for the starting node. You can change the coordinate value. All following elements move with respect to the new coordinate.

  • If the node and any coordinate are both changed, and the changed node is valid, then the software ignores the coordinate change and moves the disconnected element to the new node.

  • After closing the Global Coordinates dialog box, disconnected element rows display in light green shading on the Coordinates and Elements lists.
