animation issues #2

Anonymous — Sat, 29 Jul 2017 11:42:18 GMT

Hi!

I am trying to animate hydrocylinder.

I need to pull out white part for 10 mm.

In https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/animation-issues/m-p/7262458#M653030 @JDMather has shown me solution to my problem.

It works fine, but in the tutorial it works in other way.

@JDMather or some one else please show me the way

:)))

here is the tutorial I use

at 2:00 the author sets constraints animation

The assembly is attached

Many thanks!

Are your Insert constraints at the correct locations?

thank you for reply!

How do I check that?

Should I watch the tutorial or there is another way?

Thanks!

Check your zero position in the video.

Is zero position fully extended, or is zero position fully retracted?

I didn't watch the video, but used logic - that is, "what makes sense to me in the real world" (see attached assembly).
