AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around building a driver for a pin connection in an assembly to restrict motion and create an animation. The user encountered issues with setting the positive angle direction correctly, as flipping the direction did not align with the desired settings in the 'select zero' menu. This resulted in difficulties defining the range of motion, leading to frustration. Ultimately, the user resolved the issue independently, expressing dissatisfaction with the software's usability. The conversation highlights challenges faced when configuring motion parameters in assembly design software, particularly in older versions.

Hopefully someone here can help me... I'm almost at my wit's end

I'm trying to build a driver for a pin connection in an assembly so that I can restrict the range of motion and make an animation

When I select the connection, the default positive angle direction is not the way that I want it. I hit the 'flip' option, and it flips the positive direction, but then when I go into the 'select zero' menu, it acts as if the positive direction is the default. Since I want to define the range of motion, whatever I select ends up as allowing everything other than what I want.

It's driving (no pun intended) me crazy.

Attached is the picture. Basically, I want the long bar to extend outward (to the right).

If it makes a difference, I'm using v2001 student.

Nevermind... I figured it out.

Stupid ackwards bassed software...
 
how did u do that
 
How did you find those six-year-old posts?

I came across a video regarding the use of AI/ML to work through complex datasets to determine complicated protein structures. It is a promising and beneficial use of AI/ML.

Interesting article about an AI writing scandal at Sports Illustrated: https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/29/opinions/sports-illustrated-ai-controversy-leitch/index.html I hadn't heard about it in real-time, which is probably indicative about how far SI has fallen*. In short, the article discusses how SI was caught using AI and worse fake reporter photos/profiles to write game summaries. Game summaries are the short articles that summarize last night's Phillies game. They are so formulaic that...
