Presentation and Exploded Views Flashcards

When creating a new storyboard in an existing presentation, which option starts it from the final component state of the previous storyboard?

Answer: Start from end of previous

Start from end of previous continues from where the prior storyboard left off.

What happens if you choose Clean storyboard when adding a new storyboard?

Answer: Components start in their assembled positions with no prior tweaks applied

A clean storyboard begins from the model's original assembled state.

In the Tweak Components mini-toolbar, what does switching between Local and World coordinate settings change?

Answer: The orientation of the triad used to define tweak directions

Local aligns the triad to the component; World aligns it to the presentation origin.

How can you change how long a tweak animates in a storyboard?

Answer: Edit the action duration or drag its bar ends on the timeline

Each action's duration is set on the timeline by editing or dragging its bar.

You want a single exploded state of the presentation that does not change when the storyboard is edited. What should you do?

Answer: Use an independent snapshot view or break the link of a dependent one

Independent snapshots are not tied to the timeline, so storyboard edits do not affect them.

After creating tweaks, a few trail segments clutter an exploded view. What is the best way to handle this without removing the tweak?

Answer: Hide or edit the trail segments

Trails can be hidden or edited separately from the tweak movement.

Which Inventor environment is used to create assembly instruction animations showing disassembly sequences?
