The same vector (force) with length 44.278 (in your example) has 
different coordinates, depending on the axes system you use to express 
these coordinates.

For :FOR, the first number is the length of the vector, the following 
three numbers are the coordinates. For FCA and FGL, only the coordinates 
are given.

Check that sqrt( 31.3^2 + 31.3^ + 0^2) = 44.28.
