Re: portable export of a compound shape
Hi, of course I did that... .. then I opened the exported mesh with another program and the separation in components was gone. But that is a limitation of that program, I erroneously thought it was an issue with the Coppelia export. My bad, sorry for the unnecessary question. Btw, a minor thing FYI:...

portable export of a compound shape
Hi, After doing some manual changes on an imported mesh, like division, merging and grouping (e.g. to have different colours for different parts of the same robot link), I would like to save the resulting compound shape . I know I can save the model or the scene. But I was wondering if I can export ...

Re: Why the Revolute joint break when the acceleration happens to the child object of the joint?
Hi, thanks for your answers, I see what you mean. E.g. see the ODE manual, Yes, I did end up in that section of the manual even before reading your post, we are on the same page :) Only in an "ideal" world. The simulated one is an ideal world :) But it was my bad to assume the joint model ...

Re: Why the Revolute joint break when the acceleration happens to the child object of the joint?
I believe that I understand it. I don't ... :( ... joints are modeled as constraints with most of the engines Precisely because joints are modeled as ideal kinematic constraints, they do not allow any motion except those granted by the joint degree of freedom. For a revolute joint, that is rotation...

Hi, thanks for your reply.
Sorry, after long hours I must have missed it is just a bit mask... :)

set an object as model base programmatically
Is there an API call to flag an object as "model"? (implying this object is the model base)
I searched for long time but could not find it. There is an argument sim.modelproperty_not_model to _remove_ the model tag, but not to add it!?! (see sim.setModelProperty)
Thanks.

Re: simulation of a generic lidar sensor
Hi, sorry to bring back and old topic, but I re-started working on it... I was looking into the simExtVision functions about the Velodyne, as hinted before. I assume these functions do something specific to convert the depth map from the vision sensor into something matching the way a lidar works. I...

Re: expected delay of the ZMQ Remote API
Thanks for your answer. I am in the process of understanding it...
So the ZMQ remote API server is completely implemented in Lua in the addOn "simAddOnZMQ remote API server.lua", correct ?
(and that just uses the simExtZMQ plugin, which gives access to regular ZMQ API)

expected delay of the ZMQ Remote API
Hi, what is the expected average delay of a remote API call? Of course I am not asking for the number of microseconds :) , but more of a qualitative estimate. I am using the C++ remote API (e.g. to set the the position of a joint), and when doing it in a tight loop, I see a human-noticeable delay in...

Re: Ros2 Humble on Docker and CoppeliaSim 4.4.0
Hi, this is more or less what I did (from the readme files, error messages, and my intuition): - make sure to checkout the tag 4.4.0 of simExtROS2 - make sure to source the ROS shell initialization script - rename the root of the plugin to sim_ros2_interface (see readme) - export CoppeliaSim_DIR=<yo...
