Hi, I am tying to figure out two frustrati ng and related issues which I'm sure are just a button click away from on a screen I havent used yet...

Is there a way to reset all gears to "start" position? (as if 'rotation' had not ever been pressed)

How do you set the angle of an eliptical gear when placing it on a shaft? I did this once I think but haven't been able to find the command since.

Thanks!

Bob:

  To reset to start condition, you just right click on the master gear in the project, and set an angle of zero.
To set an elliptica l gears rotation ( or any particula r gear), selct that gear or the shaft its on, and then use the CW or CCW to rotate it.
Note: All gears attached to that gear will , because they must, also rotate.
