Modeling an arm driven by a lead screw with Mechanism2d

How can I model a pivoting mechanism that is not driven at the joint, but rather further away from the fulcrum, by a lead screw using Mechanism2d?

Do the calculation in your code to convert the lead screw position into a joint angle. Mechanism2d isn’t a physics sim, it just draws lines.

Yeah I worded it badly, I just didn’t know if there was a better way to depict the mechanism motion, so I could use it in AdvantageScope.
Thanks.
