Creating a walkthrough
- [Instructor] So, you've learned how to take a path and put a camera on it, and then the camera travels along the path through your model to show the viewer whatever you wanna display, but SolidWorks also has a tool called Walk-through. So, if you wanna add a walk-through, you're gonna right-click and go Add Walk-through and then it gives you a plane and it's basically a vertical direction along that linear curve or normal to the plane. So, you then give it a height. You can give it a motion constraint, so if we had a path, we could have it follow that path. So, if we wanted to add a path, for example, here's a path right here, I'm gonna show it, so you can see the path that I've outlined. Here's the plane that I've got outlined, so again, I just drew a spline for where I wanted my person to be traveling along. So, I can say I want them to be traveling along that path, and notice there's the green arrow is basically showing the human being aligned along that path. And then, if I…
