expressions in constraints
expressions in constraints
(OP)
Hi
How can I make constraints depend on an expression instead of being fixed?
For example to create a Rubik cube, where a piece can be forced to be on a plane or on contact with other except if some other pieces are moved.
I know how to link expressions to the dimensions of a body but I don't know how to use them with constraints.
I'm looking at least for some "remove constraint by expression"

Can I get this without programming with NX Open?

Attached below is an NX 7.5 version of the assembly. To see it 'play', open the assembly (to see the proper colors you will need to toggle OFF the 'Use Lightweight Representations' Load Option) and then go to...
Assemblies -> Sequence...
...set the 'Playback Speed' to '10' and then hit the 'Play Forward' VCR control.

Nice to see the motion, but I have not seen any constraints in this file.
As you quote "I simply created a fully constrained Assembly using Angular Constraints for each rotating 'set' of blocks"
Please let us know how you apply constraints.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion, it had been awhile since I had messed with that model
