joint subcommand [args]JOINT(nged)
NAME
joint - manage kinematic joint and constraint data for articulated models
On this page
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The joint command manages kinematic joint and constraint data used to describe articulated geometry models. Joints define degrees of freedom between parts, and constraints restrict that motion.
Subcommands
| Subcommand | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
[commands] |
List available subcommands. |
|
[joints] |
Accept (commit) a series of joint moves. |
|
[hex code] |
Show or set the debugging bit vector. |
|
[commands] |
Print usage information for the specified subcommands. |
|
[names] |
List the currently loaded constraint holds. |
|
[names] |
List the currently loaded joint objects. |
|
file_name |
Load joint and constraint definitions from a file. |
|
Build the kinematic grip mesh from loaded joints. |
|
|
joint_name p1 [p2 … p6] |
Manually adjust a joint by specifying one or more parameter values. |
|
[joint_names] |
Reject (undo) joint position changes. |
|
file_name |
Save current joint and constraint definitions to a file. |
|
constraint |
Solve one or all loaded constraints. |
|
Unload all joints and constraints from memory. |
EXAMPLES
Example 1. Load a joint file
mged> joint load arm_joints.jnt
Loads joint definitions from arm_joints.jnt.
Example 2. List joints
mged> joint list
Lists all currently loaded joints.
Example 3. Move a joint
mged> joint move elbow_joint 45
Sets the elbow_joint position parameter to 45.
Example 4. Accept the current joint positions
mged> joint accept
Commits all pending joint moves to the model.
