Animating Visual Properties
You can change visual properties at any point during the animation.
For example, you can start to change the view from Shaded
to Wireframe
when the component starts to move. You can also change
visual properties in time without
animating component movement.
You can change the display of single or multiple components, and combine
different display options within the same or different assembly components.
When you click Calculate
or Play from Start
on the MotionManager toolbar, the visual properties for
those components change as the animation progresses.
To change visual properties for an animation:
Enable
view orientation in the animation.
Drag the time
bar to set an ending time point.
On the MotionManager
design tree, right-click a component, and select one of the following:
