B. Two Points (Actuator, Damper, Pin, Rod, Rope, Separator, Spring, Spring/<br />

Damper)<br />

C. Three or more points (Pin)<br />

Create and/or select the point(s) where you would like to add a constraint. Run the<br />

script and specify the desired constraint.<br />

6.5 The Document <strong>Model</strong> Script<br />

This script enables you to completely document a model. Running this script produces<br />

a text file that lists information (e.g., units, properties, bodies, constraints, integration<br />

settings, etc.) that describes the model.<br />

6.6 The Zoom to Extent Script<br />

Zoom to Extent adjusts the zoom so you can view your entire model in the simulation<br />

window. Simply select this script from the menu to run it.<br />

6.7 The Measure Between Points Script<br />

Running this script creates a meter that measures the distance between the two selected<br />

points. The distance is displayed once you run (or re-run) your model.<br />

6.8 The Flip Polygon Script<br />

Flip Polygon allows you to flip a polygon into a mirror-image position. Before<br />

running this script, create and select a polygon. Run the script, then specify whether<br />

you want to flip the polygon horizontally or vertically.<br />

6.9 The Pin Friction Script<br />

This script allows you to simulate friction on pin joints. Before running the script,<br />

create and select a pin joint. Run the script to create two input controls: one for the<br />

effective pin radius and the other for the coefficient of friction in the joint. Adjust the<br />

values and run your model to simulate the friction.
