The user can create a joint entity as follows.
•Point, Direction
•Point: Selects a point on two bodies to define the location of screw joint.
•Direction: Defines the direction of z-axes of base and action markers as the axis of translation and rotation. The translation displacement and rotation angle are related by pitch.
•Point, Direction, Distance
•Point: Selects a point on two bodies to define the location of screw joint.
•Direction: Defines the direction of z-axes of base and action markers as the axis of translation and rotation. The translation displacement and rotation angle are related by pitch.
•Distance: Defines the pitch.
