Hi,

I'm having some problem displaying some /tf in rviz. I'm working on 
displaying a hand in rviz.

Here is the situation:
I have a robot_state_publisher transforming joint_datas to tf, and I can 
view the model in rviz, using a frame published by the 
robot_state_publisher (/srh/position/shadow_forearm). This works fine, I 
see my whole hand, I can move the fingers, etc...

I'm then publishing a fixed transform: <node pkg="tf" 
type="static_transform_publisher" name="fixed_frame_pos_pub" args="0 0 0 
0 0 0 fixed  /srh/position/shadow_forearm 20" /> which transforms the 
/srh/position/shadow_forearm to /fixed. This fixed transform is published.
When I view this new /tf in rviz, the forearm goes to /fixed frame which 
is fine, but I get errors for all the other joints saying "No transform 
from [srh/position/lfdistal] to [/fixed]". The other joints are then not 
displayed (no transform).

However, the transform from shadow_forearm to fixed is published and the 
transform from the rest of the joints to shadow_forearm are published as 
well.

Any ideas ?

(I hope I was clear :S)

Cheers,

Ugo
