    ProjectWise Navigator V8i - Animating Element Transparency within a Scheduled Simulation

    Carlos2804

    I have created a 4D schedule simulation using ProjectWise Navigator V8i and would like all chosen elements to fade into view as the simulation progresses through the schedule. I have created particular named groups of elements and linked them to start date/time and finish date/time tasks. The start transparency of the named group is set to 100% transparency and the finish transparency to be 0% for each related task. I assumed that as time progressed through the related tasks in the schedule the elements would fade into view, however after the task linked to the named group completes the elements pop into view, they do not fade in at all.

    Could anyone shed some light on this one for me please? The only other way i can think of doing this would be to stager the tasks to have multiple start and finsh transparency date/times, however that would be lenghty for the size of model i have!

     

    Thank you for taking the time to read through my post.

     

    Regards,

    Carl

      It's one option, but I have also animated levels etc to get some sort of simulation. It's not viable on bigger selection sets, but smaller jobs it's ideal. I'll put something together ASAP and post it up.

      Hi Carl,

      Before I get too far with this Blog, can you check the dgn attached from the thread I linked earlier? It shows how to celection sets can be turned into actors to animate a time line of sorts. Let me know what you think?
