    Fixed Constraint Failure on Spline

    Create a Spline using Reference Points and lock it using a Fixed Constraint. Draw a Line across it. Trim one side of the Line using the Trim Figure tool. What happens? For me, the Fixed Constraint is removed without warning and the trimming of the Line disturbs the shape of the Spline...

So, I choose the Edges filter again and I can make my first selection, fair enough so far. Oh! the Filter has defaulted to Faces and...

    Simulating the function of a Sprag clutch in Simwise Motion

    The attached file shows the functionality that I want but not achieved by way of the 'cheat', time variables, method that I've used here. Does anyone know how to achieve the function of a Sprag clutch using only the torque direction of the input to it?

    Rectilinear profile on helical path

    Does anybody have any thoughts on maintaining profile orientation on a helical path? Drawing a non-circular helical path is easy enough. Maintaining profile orientation is not so easy....... I guess this is what 2 rail Sweeps are for? Using a Loft for this is a nightmare..........

    Selection Filter limitations
