Revision history [back]

For all those wondering why you could ever need using a relative path to point to the mesh geometry file, here is a standard use-case: you want to import into the scene an object that someone shared with you. You would normally want to copy only the geometry file (STL) and the meta-data regarding the visua/collision/inertia aspects (URDF). Creating a XACRO file or a package is superfluous.
