Syntax
*mechadjustballjoint name x y z tolerance lock angle_step
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
Actuates a ball joint to reach a new value. The mechanism must have the enabled flag set to true for this to be possible.
Inputs
- name
- The name of the joint to adjust.
- x
- The desired x Euler angle value of the joint (double).
- y
- The desired y Euler angle value of the joint (double).
- z
- The desired z Euler angle value of the joint (double).
- tolerance
- The tolerance allowed when adjusting (double).
- lock
- 1 - All joints in the mechanism which are not part of the cycle of the given joint are locked.
- angle_step
- The size of the iterative steps used to solve for the new value of the joint. Only used for rotation.
Example
To move a joint named TORSO_to_RIGHT_UPPER_LEG to x=20, y=0, z=0 with a tolerance of 0.001,
locking other joints and angle step =
0:
*mechadjustballjoint "TORSO_to_RIGHT_UPPER_LEG" 20.0 0.0 0.0 0.001 1 0
Errors
Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect
errors, you can use the catch
command:
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
# Handle error
}
