How to play an animation backward

Hi,

after having exploded my model I'd like to animate the steps backward to create a video guide on how to assemble it.

Is it possible?

 

Sorry if the question has been asked already.

 

Cheers,

Stefano

Hey stefano.cottafavi2YQRW,

 

I'm not sure if there's a way to export an animation in reverse in Fusion, but I always do this after exporting the file in video editing software. iMovie (and I'm sure a whole host of other free video editing software) can do this with one click.

Hi @jodom4,

that's indeed my backup plan.

Still would be nice to have the same functionality of the model workspace (see @etfrench reply) fully integrated in the Animation workspace, for recording purposes.

Picking this back up. This works for me, thank you @Anonymous, except the rotation animations, begin to rotate around a different axis when the animation is reversed anyone know why this might be? @Anonymous
