Moves a body of a mechanism from a source point to a target point using rotation angles.
Syntax
*mechplanetranslatebody name sx sy sz tx ty tz rx ry rz tolerance
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
Moves a body such that the source point on the body reaches the target point, while satisfying joints and constraints defined in the mechanism.
The mechanism must have the enabled flag set to true for this to be possible.
Inputs
- name
- The name of the body of the mechanism.
- sx
- The x-coordinate of the source point on the body.
- sy
- The y-coordinate of the source point on the body.
- sz
- The z-coordinate of the source point on the body.
- tx
- The x-coordinate of the target point.
- ty
- The y-coordinate of the target point.
- tz
- The z-coordinate of the target point.
- rx
- The x-direction rotation angle.
- ry
- The y-direction rotation angle.
- rz
- The z-direction rotation angle.
- tolerance
- The tolerance allowed during the placement.
Example
To move body Seat_Cushion from (-1447.3297618988, 263.83727318711, 562.87391867592) to (-1400.3297618988, 263.83727318711, 562.87391867592) with tolerance 0.001, with no rotation angles:
*mechplanetranslatebody "Seat_Cushion" -1447.3297618988 263.83727318711 562.87391867592 -1400.3297618988 263.83727318711 562.87391867592 0 0 0 0.001Errors
Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect
errors, you can use the catch
command:
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
# Handle error
