Hi all,

is it possible to animate 2 parameters together instead of only 1?
I need to animate 2 angles but not one after the other...


Thank you
Marco

Hi,

you can make one of the angles dependent on the other angle.
You do that by using an expression instead of a value in one of the angles.
Suppose you have angles ang1 and ang2, you can give ang2 the expression
0.5*ang1+150.5*ang1+15
for example.
This way, if you animate ang1, ang2 will automatically be animated, too.
Before the "gear" relation type existed, this was a trick to animate gear transmissions.

Jaap
