Move/rotate tools broken on gazebo5 branch

osrf-migration commented 9 years ago

Original report (archived issue) by Steve Peters (Bitbucket: Steven Peters, GitHub: scpeters).

The move/rotate tools are broken on the gazebo5 branch except for ODE models that have been auto-disabled. For example, if you insert a box and wait a few seconds so that it comes to rest; the move/rotate tools will work.

On the other hand, if you use any other physics engine, or insert a model with joints that can't auto-disable (such as the double pendulum with base), then you will be unable to use these tools.

I tried reducing the update rate, and it seems to reset the visual position with every physics update. @iche033 has an idea of the source of the problem and a fix.

I uploaded a video to vimeo, and it will be ready to view soon:
