Constraints Handler

Post by avytin » Sat Jun 27, 2009 12:31 pm

Hi,

I remember some years ago it wasn't right to use transformation handler if you have objects that tie to other objects, that tie to other objets.
(e.g.
equalDOF 1 2 1 2
equalDOF 2 3 1 2
)

Is it still a problem? Do we still need to use penalty handlers for this type of problem?

why didn't you run it to see what happened! .. you can use transformation if there are no other mp constraints on the constrained nodes.
