Controlling Hinge Motion

Introduction

Controlling Hinge motion is performed by changing the values under the Motion tab in the Hinge component window. For both translation and rotation, the current displacement or angle may be set along with maximum and minimum values for each. Clicking the Max/Min buttons will set the corresponding value to the current angle or displacement. Clicking the Range button will set the minimum and maximum travel of the slider range to the listed min/max settings. This way, you can move through the entire motion envelope using one drag of the slider.
