Animation pivot point

[gordonclamp]

I wish to move the pivot point in Animation. The facility exists in the "Transform Components" dialog box, but when you re-position the pivot the component you are trying to move stay's put, although a move angle is indicated.

I am trying to animate the opening and closing of a carton from a flat blank so need the panels to rotate around the crease lines (panels are individually modeled components and do rotate in the model). At the moment the pivot and move points show in a random position on each panel.

Hi,

It sounds like you aren't clicking to accept the new pivot.

Here are the steps in image form. Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
