Is there anyway to create a timeline animation

Robert_PennRobert_Penn Member Posts: 5
I'm new to Onshape and I am trying to replicate the process of a vial or vials loading onto a conveyor where they will accumulate and going through a starwheel onto another conveyor where the will accumulate again and exit through another starwheel. I would like to do a continual animation without having to cut multiple scenes in an editing software. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

    Not that I'm aware of. You can only animate one degree of freedom of one mate at a time. There are certainly some workarounds to make more advanced animations, but even with those I can't think of a way to get the level of motion you're looking for.
