relateFrame()

Synopsis

Returns the Frame which represents the transform from a to b. If Frames a and b are two coordinate systems in space, the result will produce the transform to b as if a was the World coordinate system.

Frames define coordinate systems. They are essentially transformation matrices from the "world" coordinate frame . Frames can be used to position Parts , but rules regarding frames are ignored when constraint-based positioning is used. This behavior is controlled by the ignorePosition? parameter, which is common to all positionable designs .
