I am writing an RVIZ panel for performing user guided model registration in a point cloud scene.

For the purposes of performing user guided ICP, I would like to display a custom model in the centre of an interactive marker.

However, I'm unable to find documentation on how to do so. I've looked through interactive markers, but nothing suggests they support this functionality. What's the best way to achieve a custom model in an interactive marker?

I have meta package structured like so

catkin_ws/src/vision_common/

  vision_common/ (a subpackage in the package)

  vision_msgs/

  vision_3d/

I want to use the vision_msgs in another package. Is it sufficient to do <run_depend>vision_common</run_depend>and

generate_messages(
  DEPENDENCIES
  vision_msgs
)

In the other package? I'm running into trouble with the following error:

CMake Error at /home/vision/catkin_ws/build/planning_common/cmake/planning_common-genmsg.cmake:3 (message):
  Could not find messages which
  '/home/vision/catkin_ws/src/planning_common/srv/SimplePlanningSrv.srv'
  depends on.  Did you forget to specify generate_messages(DEPENDENCIES ...)?
