A supported plugin api is planned for rviz2, which is hopefully coming in e-turtle.  Unfortunately the current plugins are not powerful enough for your use-case.<div><br></div><div>Josh<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Nov 5, 2010 at 8:42 AM, Michael Sands <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:m.sands.vader@gmail.com">m.sands.vader@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

Basic overview, I had a plugin that has a connected graph of waypoints in the real world. I want to make a plugin for rviz to be able to display these waypoints and also allow the user to select a waypoint and when selected send that as a goal. I know I can just send markers and lines to rviz to display the waypoint network but I don&#39;t see any way I can make it perform and an action when selected. This is why I was looking to make my own plugin.<br>


<br>Does anyone have any ideas or know when the plugin API for rviz is going to be released?<br><br>Mike Sands<br>VADER Laboratory<br>Lehigh University<br>
