### Description

Adds a 3D chain and parents the new chain under this object. A 3D chain has joint properties that can rotate on any axis.

### C# Syntax

    ChainRoot X3DObject.Add3DChain( Object in_rootPos, Object in_effPos, Object in_normalPlane, String in_bstrName );

### Scripting Syntax

    oReturn = X3DObject.Add3DChain( [RootPos], [EffectorPos], [ChainNormalPlane], [Name] );

### Return Value

ChainRoot

### Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
RootPos | Either an SIVector3 or an Array | The root position of the new chain, in global coordinates. Default Value: (0,0,0)
EffectorPos | Either an SIVector3 or an Array | The effector position of the new chain, in global coordinates. Default Value: (1,0,0)
ChainNormalPlane | Either an SIVector3 or an Array | The chain's normal to the plane, in global coordinates. Default Value: (0,0,1)
Name | String | name of new chain

### Examples

#### VBScript Example

    NewScene , false

    set oRoot = Application.ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Root

    set oChain = oRoot.Add3DChain

    oRootPos = Array(0,10,0)

    oEffPos = Array(10,10,0)

    set oChain = oRoot.Add3DChain( oRootPos, oEffPos )
