Two problems with .stl files
Posted: Thu Dec 20, 2018 9:07 am
Hello everyone, I attached a body on the arm arm26 and I imported a .stl file created with Solidworks to specify the geometry.
The measurements of the body created in Solidwork have a diameter of 0.05 m and a length of 0.5 m, but when importing the file in Opensim I have to use a scale factor of 0.0005 to obtain reasonable dimensions; why? Isn't Arm26 in meter?
The second thing I don't understand is why I get the message 'Mesh Exo2.STL not connected to model..ignoring' in the Matlab Command Window, but in Opensim I see the geomtry of my body; I get this error only in Opensim 4.0 when I used the beta version I did not get it.
Thanks in advance for your answers!
