Spring Make Flexible

Hi -


I have modeled a spring, and am trying to make it compress and extend. It is currently constrained to two different objects. When I move one object on the slider, I want the spring to be able to extend, relative to the object. How do I do this?


Thanks.
 
Model the spring such that you can control the length from a sketch or plane, add set up > flexibility and pick this feature. In an assembly you will be asked what distance you want this flexibility to be set to.
 
hey..
I have done all steps required to make spring flexible....but after selecting the spring and clicking on profile option,the dimensions of spring are not appearing in the window.
What should i do?
thanks
