That’s the core of my point though. Once you add depth it’s not 2d space anymore (even though the screen is 2d, the represented field is 3D) and y becomes depth.

I do use CAD software but always have my items resting on an x/y plane with z being height. I do some 3d printing and basic cad designs, so z being elevation still makes sense there.

Lol I was just ranting into the void but glad it resonated for you.

Z is elevation. Any real world application, z goes up down. 3D applications SHOULD use it for elevation. I despise that many do not. It’s so fucking confusing. 2D, sure y go brrr. But once that 3rd dimension is added, y needs to take several seats and quit trying to take on dimensions it doesn’t have any right to.

How big are you going to gauge them?

They like math, but not grammar. Lol month's
