Animated Assembly Instructions

[jthompson]

Is there a way to add annotations like arrows to animations?

I'm trying to do some animated assembly instructions, but I can't figure out a way to add annotations to show where and how to move things.

See attached animation for the sort of thing I'm looking to do. It seems like everything is there except for the simple shape annotations.

Thanks!

I would model the arrows as 3D solids. You can then turn their visibility on and off in the animation workspace when needed.

That's an excellent workaround!

It would still be REALLY nice if the Fusion team could find a way to implement that and text annotations directly in the Animation environment.

Thanks for the great idea!
