Hello Autodesk Community, my name is Christian and I'm fairly new to Inventor so please bare with me.
I've done a simple animation in an assembly, that consists of a wheel that's rolling down a plank. The problem I've encountered is with the reflections in the ground plane, they are kind of "bouncing" around. I enabled the Origin planes of the wheel to see what was going on, and this was what I saw: http://youtu.be/5rTro9wCqoU (yes, the wheel was rotating the wrong way... ._.). When I made the origin planes visible. I instantly knew that something was wrong.
Do anyone have an explanation to what is happening and how I can fix this? It's for school and it's pissing me off, have been dealing with these the last couple of days, just spending countless of hours searching the web (can't find anything) and trying to rebuild everything time after time. I followed this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix76f18EWKo
Thanks for helping me out.
Best regards,
Christian.

Thanks for you answer, it's much appreciated.
Please take a look at the first link (the video is only a couple of seconds), because it clearly shows what the problem is. There's not any jiggle, the whole ground plane is jumping up and down.
Yes it was/is grounded. And the wheel is stuck to the plank aswell. But watching the video you can see that the bouncing reflections and shadows follow one of the origin work planes, and I have really no idea why it would affect anything, when the wheel is round lol.
I think I have solved it. I went into Ground Plane Settings and changed the Position and Size to "Manual adjustment" instead of "Automatic adjustment to model". Now the ground plane isn't bouncing and now its fixed.
Thank you very much gsmith9810.
