bump

A frame visualization mode, something similar to: Right Click -> View -> Frames , I think would be very useful

I'm also working on some frame visualization for the Apply Force GUI, and it is needed on the Model Editor as well.

  1. I think we should decide on a standard way of representing frames across all tools.

  2. This will be probably tricky, but it would be great to visually tell if it's a model frame, or a link frame, collision, visual...

  3. This is the current state of the Force GUI, the thin lines represent the link frame.

    • Pros: It stretches outside of the link, no need to view transparent.

    • Cons: Might become too cluttered; No direction.

  1. I have an old implementation of frame visuals for the model editor here (2ee18d8203dbe65d175f7d7914f6e19b55d52a0e), I'll share a screen shot when I can, but it basically looks like the joint visuals, just smaller and without arrow heads.

    • Pros: More compact, shows direction.

    • Cons: Very similar to joint visuals, disappears inside model.

Since my last comment:

Pull request #1762 adds small visuals for the link frames - no model, collision or visual frames yet.

There is a question about sensor frames.

@spaepcke

So for visuals and collisions, make frame visuals similar to the ones for links but with a V or a C floating next to it.
