Connector Page

 

This page changes the relation of joint entity for base and action bodies.

 

Figure 1  Joint property page [Connector page]

 

     Base and Action Marker: All points are measured with respect to the inertial reference frame.

    Name: Defines the name of maker.

    Body: Defines the mother body of marker.

    Ref Frame: Defines the reference frame of joint. The origin and orientation are measured with respect to the reference frame.

    Euler Angle: Select 321 or 313 Euler Angles.

The euler angle can be defined as a parametric value. If the user inputs the parametric value, the unit is Radian. Therefore, if the user wants to input a degree value, the user must add the "D" character such as "90D" in Parametric Value.

 

     Copy Base to Action: Copies the origin or orientation of the base marker to the action marker.

     Copy Action to Base: Copies the origin or orientation of the action marker to the base marker.

     Copy options

    All: Copies the origin and the orientation

    Origin: Copies only the origin

    Orientation: Copies only the orientation.
