Animate Construction Method in Revit

[Omer4ZWBQ]

Hello, I've been trying to animate the construction method of the project I'm working on, basically I need the animation to show two objects getting one on top of another, and then a bolt going on a preconstructed hole in both elements and shutting them close.

I've seen a bit about walkthrough animations, but that is not quite what I need, is there a way to animate the objects movements in Revit for a simple animation, and not having to go to a second program?

Within native Revit this will not be (really) possible.

However Revit has something like displacement sets, where you can move object away from each other.

In combination with an add-in like image-o-matic (not checked if there is more recent version than 2019) it can create images while varying parameters, phasing and displacement sets.

With a free tool it will be easy to convert the images to a video.

Possibly there wil be more add-ins that will do something similar
