Required Arguments

• theElement: The element to be attached.
• theAttachToElement: The element to attach the first to.

Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.

• xPosOffset: The x offset, if you want the elements to be a certain distance from one another (default 0).
• yPosOffset: The y offset (default 0).
• zPosOffset: The z offset (default 0).
• xRotOffset: The x offset (default 0).
• yRotOffset: The y offset (default 0).
• zRotOffset: The z offset (default 0).
