Autocad 3D

[MelatCMC]

Can someone tell me if it is possible to show the movement of Autocad 3Dparts in an assembly like Solidworks does? ie gears

yes U can write scripts and do so.

Step 1

First get your gears done in 2D AutoCAD.


Step 2

Use "g" in command prompt to create group
Put each gear in separate group, name each group "1" & "2"


Step 3

now open notepad and write down following script
============================
rotate
g
1

(x,y)
1
rotate
g
2

(p,q)
-1
rscript
===================================

NOTE: here, we are ordering our beloved autocad to rotate the group 1 with 1 speed about (x,y) axis(co-ordinates).... same withe the group 2, rotate the group 2 with -1 speed about (p,q) axis(co-ordinates)

Use "ID" command to locate the center-point of gear.


Step 4

now save your notepad file with [.scr] extension
your file name can be any thing.
mine is "gear.scr"


Step 5

now type "scr" in your autocad command prompt, hit enter, browse to the "XYZ.scr" file you just created.. and you've done!!!!
