How to find correct XYZ/Translation/Position values in NifSkope for snapping objects?

[Kronos7714]

I posted this here, and in Mod Talk, as I'm not sure which one it should be in, and also, I'm kinda desperate for an answer, as I've been trying and failing forever.

 

I'm a noob, and I'd like to know how I'm supposed to find the correct translation/position XYZ values for an item's connect points in NifSkope.

I'm trying to make something snap to walls, but I don't know how to find the correct values for the item to snap.

I'm also trying to connect stairs together, and I'm not quite sure if I have the correct connect points for those.

Can anyone help, or should I start a new topic? I've been testing different values for hours, I have the correct connect points for the wall item, I just can't find the correct XYZ values.

I'd appreciate absolutely *any* advice. :yes:

I'm new to modding, almost completely. And in particular, I find NifSkope very confusing and difficult to understand.

Thanks!
