Animations you can view in
eDrawings on the
Animations pane:
- Animations generated in eDrawings. Play through the view orientations or drawing views with shaded data in the order displayed on the Animations pane.
- SOLIDWORKS Motion studies animations. Use the animation tools, including playback options, on the Animations pane.
Animations Generated in eDrawings
Use the eDrawings animation tools to animate models using drawing views contained in drawings and standard views for parts and assemblies.
When animating drawing files (*.edrw and .eDw), section lines and detail circle annotations hyperlink to the associated section or detail view. When you stop an animation, if you click a section line or detail circle annotation, the related view appears in the graphics area, and vice versa. See Hyperlinked Views in Drawings.
