(API) Query mechanism for non-extreme bar forces?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Apologies if this is a stupid question or if it's been asked on the forum before (I did try searching and I'm still new to the API!), but I wondered if there is a way to use the query mechanism to get the actual (non-extreme) forces at a number of points along a bar (a bit like querying the IRobotExtremeValueType.I_EVT_FORCE_BAR_FX result ID, but I want the actual forces in the bar at that point, not the extreme ones along the element).  I think I could manage this using the force server and a bar collection, but the query mechanism seems so much quicker for large selections of bars - I just don't know which ResultIds to use.

Thanks,

Alan.

Hi @Anonymous

I think you should use I_RPT_BAR_DIV_POINT (and I_RPT_BAR_RELATIVE_POINT) instead I_RPT_BAR_DIV_COUNT from example

Hi @Anonymous,

Regarding ResultIds, you can use the values of IRobotExtremeValueType (same as for extremes), e.g. IRobotExtremeValueType.I_EVT_FORCE_BAR_FX to read values of bar forces.
