Start Tab

The values entered into the

Start tab will give an object an

initial state for the dynamics to

work on.

The Start tab enables you to dene the state of the rigid body at the start of the

dynamics animation, such as the rigid body’s starting velocity.

The ‘v’ settings dene the starting velocity of the rigid body. The ‘w’ settings set the

angular velocity (rotation). ‘F’ denes a force that is exerted during the rst frame

of the dynamics animation. The values you enter for ‘I’ will dene the torque applied

during the rst frame of the dynamics animation.
