I am executing a long series of joint moves with short durations \>0.05s, and I need to know when the joint move is completed while also ensuring that the trajectory executes smoothly. When I saw that there was an entire class of processes that trigger on position, I was quite excited, but then noticed that there was a triggering version for every type of move, excepting absolute joint moves. Is there a way to replicate the functionality of a TriggAbsJ function? Does this function exist, and I simply have not been able to find it in the docs? Am I entirely out of luck? Why???
