  29. Perform steps 22 to 24.
  RESULT: The generated image is completely different from the
  image generated at step 24. Double click on the image and
  select the MORE button.
  Observe the axis system option.
  The Axis system is changed into GLOBAL (CARTESIAN).
  NOTE:
  This problem is not reproduced if you skip step24.
  If all steps except step 24 are performed, the axis system at
  step 29 remains LOCAL (CARTESIAN).
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  At step 29 the axis system shown should be LOCAL (CARTESIAN) an
  d not GLOBAL (CARTESIAN).
