Hi Sebastian,
Right now there is no direct interface to set joint angles for a model simulated in gazebo.  Will controlling joint angles by applying forces to the joint/bodies or using a mechanism controller suffice or are you looking for ways to set joint states directly and bypass the physics?

Hi all,

The ros.org tutorials on URDF files show how to create a link/joint structure, but there is never any mention of how to change the joint angles of a joint once spawned in Gazebo. Is there a particular method that can be used to publish this? Thanks!
