No legends in Motion Study

I'm making my first motion study:

They're all white..They're all white..

 

Is it normal that there are no legends next to the check boxes? In this video they are color coded to know which joints I'm manipulating.

 

Also, does anyone have a trick to alias the joints at this level? They are all "Cyl1" though they drive different things. (They come from two kinds of components so renaming them there is not much better - I'd like to see the whole path name, e.g. "Pump motor:2 > Cyl1" instead. Best would be if I can just give them local aliases, for the sake of the motion study.

 

Third, how do you set the rest states? I tried setting values for step 0, but that's not supported. It seems Fusion 360 relies on the rest state of the design for this, but those tend to change. I'd rather have the initial position stored, as part of the study.

 

But most importantly - is it "normal" that I don't see the color legends? Is there a place I should turn them on?

 

Mac, Fusion 360 2.0.6258

Hello!

 

The names are the names of the original joints. And I have colors as you see.

I don't know what's wrong with your colors.

It seems the colors were hidden by the legend column being too narrow - I don't remember rescaling it.

 

Drag it wider in the headers.
