Hello,

I changed the joint value of my robot using the smartcomposant “JointMover” and build my own smartcomposant with the help of this [page](https://developercenter.robotstudio.com/api/robotstudio/articles/How-To/RobotMechanism/GetRobotCoordinatesExample.html) and this [one](https://developercenter.robotstudio.com/api/robotstudio/articles/How-To/RobotMechanism/SetRobotJointValuesExample.html) and it is working fine. My problem is when I am trying to move the robot with the Virtual Controller it go back to the value before. I suppose that the values was not transfert to the controller and it overwrite the values of the station.

Do you know a way to resolve this problem ?

Thank you in advance 🙂
