I'm trying to turn my part simulation into a video that can be used in Power Point.

Is there a way to do it?

Ive tried screen capture programs, but they dont have enough resources to work smoothly when catia is simulating.

Any sort of video file will do, MPEG, AVI - whatever.

I need it for a presentation.

Thanks
 
Use Tools - Image - Video. This will capture whatever is happening on screen as an .avi file.
 
Hi,

If you are running under Windows choose a codec type for compression (probably divx is the best one but take also in consideration that a mpeg file can be easier edited in a specific software).

we use CAMTASIA... give good result and you can edit a movie, change size, add sound and many more.

HI,

As far as running a simulation, use the AVI generation capabilities built into the Kinematics/Fitting Simulations applications. They aren't fast, but they capture everything OK. If you have multiple simulations, you can even sequence them to run consecutively or concurrently.

I also use Camtasia when trying to capture interactive stuff, as it's very fast & doesn't bog down the system.
