Description |
Edit |
Copy to clipboard (tasks only) |
Tasks of the corresponding worker or dynamic object will be copied. For the subsequents task insertion, the object references from the original tasks are used. |
|
Edit |
Copy to clipboard (tasks & all referenced objects) |
Tasks and the referenced objects of the corresponding worker or dynamic object will be copied. |
|
Edit |
Paste before from clipboard |
The copied tasks in the clipboard will be attached to the front of the existing task list. By choosing paste original objects the object will be inserted like it was copied. With paste replacement objects the individual objects are replaced by geometric primitives (cuboid) based on their bounding boxes. It is possible to copy from one ema instance and paste in another ema instance. |
|
Edit |
Paste after from clipboard |
The copied tasks in the clipboard will be attached to the end of the existing task list. By choosing paste original objects the object will be inserted like it was copied. With paste replacement objects the individual objects are replaced by geometric primitives (cuboid) based on their bounding boxes. It is possible to copy from one ema instance and paste in another ema instance. |
|
Edit |
Mirror helper object(s) |
Helper object(s) (markers/paths such as walk points, grab points etc.) associated with the task parameter can be mirrored to a reference object. The mirror plane is represented by the global X-Z-plane of the object selected using the dialogue window. |
|
Edit |
Delete task |
The selected task is deleted. |
|
Edit |
Delete all other tasks in behavior |
All tasks except the selected are deleted. |
|
Edit |
Clear behavior |
All tasks of the selected behavior are deleted. |
|
Edit |
Split MoCap task |
The selected MoCap task is split at the set point in time and a second MoCap task is created. |
|
Edit |
Merge MoCap tasks |
Merges two selected, sequentially contiguous MoCap tasks to one. |
|
Visibility |
|
Show / hide all related objects |
Shows / hides all objects directly linked to the behavior. |
Visibility |
|
Show all related objects (hierarchical) |
Shows / hides all objects and their sub-objects directly linked to the behavior. |
Parameter |
Edit user defined parameters |
Pressing the menu entry opens a dialog: Manage user defined parameters of [Object] (see chapter Parameter types / User defined parameters / User defined task parameters) |
|
|
Ignore selected tasks |
For all selected tasks the ignore flag will be set. During simulation, these tasks are not taken into account. |
|
|
Simulate selected tasks |
The ignore flag will be removed for all selected tasks. During simulation, these tasks are taken into account. |
|
|
|
Lock / unlock structure |
The selected task group will be locked / unlocked and this implies that the sub tasks within that task group cannot be edited any more or can be edited again. |
|
Task conversion |
When a robot task from its behavior is dragged and dropped into a human behaviour and vice-versa, the task parameters will not get automatically converted. In this case, the user has to click "task conversion" defined in the task's context menu for task parameter conversion (see chapter Task library / Convertible tasks). |
|
|
Store in library ... |
A task or a task group can be saved in a custom resource library. The dialog asks for a preview file (optional), the item name, attachments (optional), and if objects should be stored in library. After confirming, a new dialog opens up to select a target library level, which allows you to save tasks in a previously and manually created object library (see chapter Tab "Objects" / Buttons/ Insertion of objects / From library / Custom resource library).
Restriction: When saving custom resource libraries from the user interface, any translations that may exist in the library are lost. Only the currently active language is written back. |

|
Export video |
Exports only the selected task or task group as a video file. |
