Information

Model SignalArrow defines an arrow that is dynamically visualized at the location where its frame_a is attached. The vector from the tail to the head of the arrow, resolved in frame_a, is defined via the signal vector of the connector r_head (Real r_head[3]):
 

The quantity parameter defines what the vector represents, allowing tools to scale e.g. forces and torques differently in a consistent way. For the default value RelativePosition the obvious scaling is 1 and the relative position is shown as is.

The tail of the arrow is defined with input r_tail with respect to frame_a (vector from the origin of frame_a to the arrow tail).
