Possible improvements for ModelBuilder scripts
#999 does a good job of simplifying the interface for model building via GUI scripting. Some suggestions for further improvement:
- Add other methods to wrap current ones to remove the need to pass in a
model
.
- I think users with less coding experience may have trouble with thinking about getting a model object and passing it in correctly.
- Make it less error prone to invoke
loadModel()
.
- I think some users will want to use
loadModel()
a lot to visualize incremental changes at they work on a model. We could make sure we either call it for users, or make sure it can only be called when it won't fail. - For example, currently in the GUI, adding a
Body
without a joint will causeloadModel()
to fail.
