Just for better visuallization, is there any way to make flashing of light for millisecond. For example, I want to flash light below the conveyor as soon as the part stop or arrive at the station. Could someone help me if this can be done and appreciated if you could do a simple sample in my model? Thanks a lot. </P> </DIV> Tue, 27 Jun 2023 07:36:36 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/how-to-simulate-lightning-kind-of-flash-light-for-millisecond/m-p/13592412#M87991 hhnaing2 2023-06-27T07:36:36Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/how-to-simulate-lightning-kind-of-flash-light-for-millisecond/m-p/13592413#M87992 <DIV class="fr-view clearfix"><P>About 12 years ago students set a shape visible for a short time. They resized the shape in steps randomly in such periods fast. This looked quite realistic for welding flashes. </P></DIV> Tue, 27 Jun 2023 08:16:41 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/how-to-simulate-lightning-kind-of-flash-light-for-millisecond/m-p/13592413#M87992 joerg_vogel_HsH 2023-06-27T08:16:41Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/how-to-simulate-lightning-kind-of-flash-light-for-millisecond/m-p/13592414#M87993 <DIV class="fr-view clearfix"><P>Here's an example by changing the intensity of one of the light objects.</P><P><A rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://answers.flexsim.com/storage/temp/70162-flashing-light-jl.fsm" target="_blank">flashing-light_jl.fsm</A></P><P>Warning: contains flashing lights.</P><P>For the timing you need to consider how fast your model is running and the framerate at which the model is repainting the window.
