Walk-throughs in SW?

Walk-throughs in SW?

Walk-throughs in SW?

(OP)
Is it possible to create "walk-throughs" or "fly-bys" in Solidworks, stand alone or with an add on?  This link, http://www.accurender.com/index.htm , shows a software package that generates such things for ACAD and other CAD systems.  It seems like the rendering is easy enough in SW but can you move the viewpoint inside of something?  Does that make any sense?

MattP,

Check out this link for the enhanced features coming in SW2006. http://www.pacificautomation.com/web5/tech_viewer.php

Just click on the Solidworks 2006 item.

Best Regards,
Jon

If you are skilled in video editing it is not too bad.  You can use Animator to create a series of AVI movies and then stictch them together with a video editor.

Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches.
