I was doing a project for school that consists of a Geneva Cam Assembly. When I put it together, it goes through the Geneva Cam. Does anybody know how to fix it? The assembly is available to edit. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/18e825534c3b12d1d058b917/w/4cbef6cfe7ecae5393658a23/e/66d1f8e4f4d7013613faec24

    @gabriel_w124 - Geneva cams require intermittent contact which is not possible in Onshape. However, there are some crazy workarounds if you have the time and the inclination: https://forum.onshape.com/discussion/10484/rubiks-cube-mate-animation/p1

    @NeilCooke : As of May 2020, you said 'intermittent contact' was not possible in Onshape. I'm currently teaching 9th graders Onshape on Chromebook and was hoping to do the Geneva Drive as well. Shall I expect that function to be available sometime during spring 2021? If not, I need to plan on a different project.
    Thanks!

    @cfraytet - there are no plans to do this in the short term.

    I think we can safely say you need to choose another project.
