Attaching a .STL geometry to an existing OpenSim (.osim) model.

[Sanura Dunu Arachchige]

Hi! I am designing an exoskeleton and plan to use OpenSim to evaluate its effects. So I tried to attach a simple box (as a weight, just to test whether this would work) to LaiArnold model using OpenSimCreator (OSC).

1) So when I insert the .STL box created using solidworks, its scale becomes huge and covers up the whole human model.
It failed...!!

2) Since it didn't work, I tried using OSCs inbuilt box option and it worked.

Then I compared the different of the codes in these two instances and codes were pretty much the same except how those have attached meshes (in first it reads the location of the STL file)

Please guide me on how to add custom made component to OpenSim files to solve this issue....
