Information

This element enbles visualization of an orthogonal coordinate system as shown in the following picture.

model Visualizers.Advanced.CoordinateSystem

The variables r, R and r_shape are declared as (time varying) input variables. If the default equation is not appropriate, a corresponding modifier equation has to be provided in the model where a CoordinateSystem instance is used, e.g., in the form

PlanarMechanics.Visualizers.Advanced.CoordinateSystem coordinateSystem(r = {sin(time), 0, 0.3});

Color of each axis can be set individually using a RGB color space given in the range 0 .. 255. Predefined colors from Types.Defaults are used throughout the library to get a coherent visualization.
