Introduced first in SolidGeometry 3.0, Creation date: 2016-11-16, Last change: 2025-09-14
adds a connection line between 2 blocks.
Description
This function connects Block within SimScape not in Simulink! So make sure that the used Block have just one Input Port.
Blocks are typically such as .S (Stator), .M(Mover), .B(Base), .F(Follower)
Without any T parameter, the blocks are connected directly.
With parameter 'align', there will be a rotation around y to connect two links or two joint. Solids have their frames looking inside. Joints have their frames towards outside.
