I have multiple exploded views, I only want to use one of them for an animation

Frank Phelps Aug 11, 2016 10:19 AM

I have created multiple exploded views in my assembly for a step by step assembly drawing document. I now want to use a "master explode" for a motion study via the animation wizard. Is there anyway to tell the animation wizard which exploded to use? Thanks in advance.

NO this is a limitation at the moment but here is a work around. While in the motion manager, right click on the exploded view you want to use and select explode/collapse. And then when you make the animation, it would pick that exploded view.

  Deepak,
  Thanks for your input. I never could get this method to work. However what I did do, which is really simplistic, was to just drag the correct exploded view to the top of the exploded view list. Thanks for your help.
