Robot does not appear in RViz #1

Closed danzimmerman closed 1 year ago

There's no .rviz config file in this repo, so the file path constructed here is invalid.

The above comment's issue is fixed but there are still problems with the MoveIt launch

Hi @danzimmerman

don't know if this has something to do with the rviz config, but your repo also has the issue mentioned here: https://github.com/UniversalRobots/Universal_Robots_ROS2_Gazebo_Simulation/issues/25

still problems with the MoveIt launch

Are these problems fixed or is this repo merged into the official one from UR?

danzimmerman commented 1 year ago

Neither have happened yet, no.

I think that it's likely that it will be a while for some of these things to happen since it would make a lot more sense to build changes like this on top of some of the reorganization being considered for ur_description.

Keep in mind that the original UR Gazebo Simulation repo has not been officially released, so I don't imagine it will be a top priority for UR maintainers at the moment.

You might try the UR Ignition Simulation package to see if that's working.

I'm working on this as a user who wanted to get Gazebo up and running and share my progress so far, but I have pretty limited time at present to work on it.

Will let you know if I get MoveIt fixed but it looked like a bit of a complicated change. Doable, but easier and cleaner if ur_description gets reorganized.

Yeah no worries about not fixing it on your own. I understand that the reorganisation is worth the wait. I just wondered if it's already working or not. I hope UR releases the package soon.

Going to close this and open #5 to track MoveIt separately.
