I have data on the bending of a beam that I want to animate. It
is a simple cylindrical shaft that is undergoing complex bending.
I have 12 strain gauges arranged in 3 rings with 4 in each ring 90
degrees out. I have the strain data in a table. I know how
to draw the bending so it reflects the data with curves but I want to
know can I animate it from the table data? I though I did this on
a previous version of the software but I'm not sure. I basicly
want Pro/E to substitute dimension values for one row of the data regen
then repreat and save it to a movie file. Simple right?



Thanks,



John
