Hi Nicolas,<br><br>rviz 1.1 includes a TEXT_VIEW_FACING marker, as well as an option to keep a marker relative to a frame (frame_locked).<br><br>Do you mean dynamically change the color of one of the robot model links?  No, there is currently no way of doing that.  Another option is that 1.1 also contains a MESH_RESOURCE marker, so you could create a mesh of the same type as that link, make it slightly larger and possibly transparent, and set its color.<br>

Hello ROS community,<br>
<br>
I am currently trying to display through rviz some informations about my<br>
robot model (a too high temperature for instance), and I don&#39;t really<br>
find a good way to do it. Is there a possibility to display informations<br>
as a floating text next to the &lt;link&gt; the informations are about ? Or a<br>
way to dynamically change the color of a texture ? And if it is not<br>
possible yet, is it planned to be possible in a future release ?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
Nicolas<br>
