New Track

Selecting Objects to Move with Tracks

You can select multiple objects to move with tracks.

Before you begin: Open a simulation, and from the Simulation section of the action bar, click New Track. The Track Authoring context toolbar appears.
  1. On the 3D geometry, select the products you want to move.

    In some cases, you may not be certain that you have precisely selected the products that you want to move. For example, if you want to be sure that you have selected an entire subassembly, and not only one of its constituent parts, then press F3 to see the tree. You can select the products directly on the tree. You can use the Ctrl and Shift keys to help with your selections.

  2. If the Moving Objects panel is not already available, click Moving Objects .

    By default, this panel is not available. You can specify the option in the Me > Preferences > App Preferences > Simulation > Manufacturing Process Documentation > Assembly Evaluation > Track tab so that it is always available.

    The Moving Objects panel appears.
  3. Select several products and verify the selected objects in the window.
  4. Clear selected objects by clicking them in the tree, the panel, or the 3D geometry.

Once you have selected the objects for the track, you can begin to record trajectory points.
