As a frequent user of 3D, I tested this out on my Windows version 3D 6.1.1. It's weird. When I run the following
breed [ points point ] to setup > clear-all > create-points 1 [ setxyz 1 2 3 set size 5 set color red] > ask point 0 [ hatch-points 1 ] > create-points 1 [ setxyz -2 -3 -4 set size 5 set color green] > ask point 2 [ hatch-points 1 ] > ask points [ show zcor ] > wait 20 > ask point 3 [ setxyz -2 -3 -4 ] > end The command center gives exactly what you would expect. But, when I look at the 3D View, the hatched and hacher points do appear to have different x coordinates. (You need to rotate the world up to see the z dimension.) They should be on top of each other, but they are not. Indeed, after the 20 seconds of wait time, you see points 2 and 3 visually merge together so, as far as the view window is concerned, they must have had different z coordinates before merging.
