how to display scale on the boundary

Asked by lip

hello
i am simulating the collapse of particle column,the boundary is formed by polyhedra, i want to know the final run-out distance and height, i think if the boundary with scale may help me, but i do not know how to achieve it, can you help me?
lookforward for your advice.

boundary1.state.pos1[0] - boundary2.state.pos[0]

provides the distance between two bodies.

Hello,
please read [1], especially point 6. I tried to understand your question, but it is too vague.
What is "final run-out distance"? distance of what? height of what? What is "boundary with scale"? ...
a MWE [1] could help, too
cheers
Jan

dear Jan:
   the run-out distance and height means the maximum moving distance and stacking height of a particle column after collapse. what i want to know is how to add scale value to the boundary in the "Primary view" window, so that i can see the values of run-out distance and height intuitively . a 3-D coordinate system with scale value and custom origins may help me too,but i do not know how to build this kind of coordinate system either,
