Editing an angle mate

“

- [Instructor] Now we're gonna be looking at angle mates. How do we modify an angle mate for an animation? I'm gonna go in the motion study and you can see our little Jack-in-the-box there. Again, if we look at the mates, I'm gonna scroll down and notice I've got an angle mate. This angle mate is for the box lid. Right now, my angle is set to zero. Again, I can do a quick pause, I can copy and paste the key, so that the angle stays at zero, between zero and two seconds. Then, I'm gonna put my mouse over at the 10 second mark. I'm putting my timeline where I want my angle mate to be changed and then I'm gonna come over to the angle mate and I'm gonna edit that dimension. I'm gonna change it to 90 degrees. Then I'm gonna do a compile. You see the box lid moving between zero and 90 degrees. Now we can save our animation or move on to what the next thing is on our script.
