Transformations

To make programming easier, you can transform the coordinate system. Use this possibility,
for example, to rotate the coordinate system.
Coordinate transformations only apply in the actual program. You can define shift, rotation,
scaling or mirroring. You can select between a new or an additive coordinate transformation.
In the case of a new coordinate transformation, all previously defined coordinate
transformations are deselected. An additive coordinate transformation acts in addition to the
currently selected coordinate transformations.
