Constrain Assembly Movement in Coordinate Space

[wicklands]

I have a simple assembly to which I am applying joints so I can observe it's movement when moving the feet.  I have applied rigid joints to connect the legs and feet.  There is a rotational joint in the center pivot and I applied a rotational joint to the left foot and the Y-axis.  What I am unable to do is constrain the right foot to slide on the X-axis.  Is this possible to do with a joint or I am I looking at this the wrong way.  I eventually like to observe how movement changes with various geometry changes to the components.

You need to attach your model to get a quick and accurate answer.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a forum post to attach it.

Attaching the export of my design.

The easiest thing to do is create a floor component, in relationship to your model, and ground it.  Then add a Tangent Relationship between the right lower tube and this floor component.  Model is attached.

Here is another Parametric solution that my suit your experimental design better.  I used a simple assembly level sketch to drive the right leg position.  This is in turn labeled as a parameter called Leg_Position.  Model is attached.

Very simple, Thanks
