Drawing Segment Primitives

Segment Primitives can be a useful tool in visualizing the position and orientation of segments in relation to each other. Segment Primitives can either be drawn using the pipeline, or by using the Draw Segment Primitives Dialog, both methods are described below

Pipeline

Segment Primitives can be draw using the pipeline command Set_Segment_Draw_Options described below

Set_Segment_Draw_Options
/CALIBRATION_FILE=\\Mac\Home\Desktop\ExampleData\Puma\2024_0220\V3D_Support\Theia\DE3\1\DE3_1_pose_0_Static.c3d

/PRIMITIVE_COLORS=Blue
! /USE_TRANSPARENCY=TRUE
/PRIMITIVE_LOCATIONS=VECTOR(-0.5,0,0)
/PRIMITIVE_SCALES=VECTOR(0.01,0.01,1)
/PRIMITIVE_ROTATIONS=VECTOR(0,90, 0)

Draw Segment Primitives Dialog

The Draw Segment Primitives Dialog can be accessed by right clicking the desired segments folder in the KINETIC_KINEMATIC folder of the Signals and Events tab.

The dialog can be used to add multiple primitives to a single segment
