Just what I needed to understand! Thanks

[@sergiob.8317]

Thanks for sharing, very interesting!

[@user-cm1yv7df7f]

Hi, thanks for sharing it with us. my question about the flexible feature - is it possible to used limitations with it? such as a "stroke" in your cylinder example? or as you mentioned in one of the comments a hinges movement from 0 to 90 degree?

[@nashgachie7695]

Well comprehensible...thanks

[@Ludgeresque]

Hi, thanks for the nice video. The question I came here for I have not found an answer for yet, though: Is it possible to make a part, not a subassembly, flexible or adaptive or what have you, using "missing" constraints in the drawings it is based on?

[@PatriotBrad]

Not sure if you will go back and see this but for instance a cylinder has hard internal limits in the real world. Is there a way to put hard limits on the movement so the rod is not able to over extend or retract too far? yet still be flexible in inventor?

[@williamclark77]

Very nicely done tutorial.

[@ReproProducts]

Thank you!

interesting tutorial

Frage: Wie kann man den Browser beim bearbeiten eines Bauteils farblich hervorheben wie im Video so ab 1:35? / Question: How can you highlight the browser when editing a part like in the video from 1:35?

[@ibiyemiabiodun4938]

If this is the case, why would you ever want to use adaptive sub-assemblies over flexible ones?

[@davidconnolly7693]

At least in my case I have several hinges on a part. I make them adaptive and they all move together.

[@jnjengineer76]

Can you help me? My inventor for adaptive fiture can not work.

How to solve this?
