body-fixed CS on rotor

  Is it possible to have a body-fixed coordinate system on a rotor component? I imported a motor-cad design with magnets on the rotor and need to specify a CS in the corner of the magnet, which rotates with the rotor and therefore stays in magnets' corner when I change the evaulation time and let the rotor rotate. With that coordiante system I would later on evalute fields in the magnet and could easily export just the field in the magnet with the field calculator. Sadly, for the moment the relative coordinate systems seem to be defined in some random spot of the body so they are useless for me.

  Hello Be Ru,
  Yes, Maxwell supports to build Face CS and Object CS while selecting face or object, then build CS by clicking Modeler>Coordinate System>Create>Face CS. Please review Maxwell help manual.
  After that, in CS properties, please enable "Always Move CS to End".
