Not support parallel link robot #4

I have been waiting for this add-ins feature for a long long time. That wouldn't make any sense if I have to manually create URDF from CAD design. There are so many hands-on measurement work for filling into URDF description. The similar add-in feature on SolidWorks is so broken and buggy.

I appreciated your great work on my favorite CAD software!

However I faced the issue. The robot I am trying to build is a robotic architect lamp, having 4 linkage mechanism.

After looking into the script, it seems not supporting multiple parent links for now.

Oh I just found out that I should create joint in a proper way, which means the order for "component 1" and "component 2" must map "child" and "parent".

Then it works! The script is fine for parallel link robot.
