Hi all.
I'm working on an assembly and need a quick pointer regarding the constraints.
A swingarm joins two pivots: a), the main pivot about which it rotates, and b), a pivot at the end about which another component rotates.
These pivots are linked hydraulically (not modelled), such that when the swingarm pivots about a), the angle of the component pivoting at b) matches the same angle. (imagine a parallelogram where the two sides remain parallel but with one of the horizontals removed)
Is there an option whereby I can set the 'rotation axis' value of b) (a pin insert), to match the 'rotation axis' of a) (also a pin insert).
Many thanks.
Mike.
