Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Problem description

The sphere showing the location of the rigid body reference point should be bigger because it may get covered by the other symbols representing this constraint:

ref point

IMO it should be bigger than those spheres on the sticks.

We can also use another symbol. Maybe three orthogonal crossed lines?

Or a cross, maybe even with label like in Abaqus (just way bigger):

But I prefer a sphere.

A classic spider as a way to represent the whole constraint would be ideal but probably also hard to implement:

RB spider
