To Create a Motion Analysis
1. Click > 
Motion Analysis. The Motion Analysis dialog box opens.
Motion Analysis. The Motion Analysis dialog box opens.2. Under Definition, select the motion definition that you want to analyze.
3. Under Parameters, select the parameters that you want to compute.
 | If you have a license for Mechanism Dynamics, the Parameters list includes the dynamics measures created in Mechanism Dynamics. |
4. Under Options, select from the following:
◦ Use all moving parts—Create a motion envelope using all moving parts. If you do not want to include all moving parts, clear this option and select the parts individually.
◦ Create motion envelope—Show the motion envelope for all or selected moving parts.
◦ Envelope quality—Enter an integer that defines accuracy of the display of the quilt that represents the motion envelope.
◦ Update interval—Enter the number of frames between two update events. This number determines how often the system updates the graphical results.
5. Click Run to begin the analysis. The system shows the moving parts in motion, computes the values of the parameters included in the analysis, and shows the graphs. The number of the computation points for the analysis depends on the number of frames in the motion definition.
The results of the computation appear in the Results box. For each parameter, the system computes the minimum and maximum values, and the time when these values were reached.
6. To view the results in an Information window, click Info.
7. To change the display setting for the motion envelope, click Display.
8. To save or retrieve the results of the analysis, click Saved Analyses.
9. To save this analysis in an analysis feature, click Add Feature and enter a name for the feature. A new analysis feature appears in the Model Tree.
10. Click Close.
