Recording Simulation As Animation

A simulation can be recorded as an animation and exported to a VCAX file. This allows you to view and playback the simulation with a mobile viewer or experience the simulation in virtual reality. A recording captures the actions and movements of components during a simulation.

1. In the 3D world, on the Simulation controls, click Export to Animation.
2. In the Export to Animation task pane, do all of the following:
   • Define a Frame rate for the recording.
   • Click Start Recording, and then define a file name and location for saving the recording.
3. To stop recording a simulation, click an option on the Simulation controls or in the Export to Animation task pane.

Tip: If you do not want to export a component, either make the component invisible or set its PDF ExportLevel to No Export.
