Once the settings are defined you call the Joints.add method passing in the JointInput object to create the actual joint.

"joints_var" is a variable referencing a Joints object.returnValue = joints_var.createInput(geometryOrOriginOne, geometryOrOriginTwo)

Return Value

Type	Description
JointInput	Returns the JointInput object or null if the creation failed.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
geometryOrOriginOne	Base	A JointGeometry or JointOrigin object that defines the first set of geometry of the joint. JointGeometry objects are created by using the various static methods on the JointGeometry class and JointOrigin objects are created through the JointOrigins object.
geometryOrOriginTwo	Base	A JointGeometry or JointOrigin object that defines the second set of geometry of the joint. JointGeometry objects are created by using the various static methods on the JointGeometry class and JointOrigin objects are created through the JointOrigins object.
