FixedFrame

Visualizing a coordinate system including axes labels (visualization data may vary dynamically)

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Model FixedFrame visualizes the three axes of its coordinate system frame_a together with appropriate axes labels. A typical example is shown in the following figure:
 

model Visualizers.FixedFrame

The sizes of the axes, the axes colors and the specular coefficient (= reflection factor for ambient light) can vary dynamically by providing appropriate expressions in the input fields of the parameter menu.
