Why does the far-side wing always looks bigger on Solidworks?

If you turn on "perspective view" in SW, it takes care of that, which I didn't use on those pics.

I tried the zip file and it didn't work...that's weird.
Anyway, maybe try saving & uploading the E-drawing as a ".exe" file (with viewer), and not zipped, worth a shot.
Also, if your using SW '07-'09, you can set the assembly in motion and record it as a ".mov" (movie) file from inside SW. (Scratch last comment if you've done it already)

??? Who's Sleepy???

Looks like it would be easy enough in SoildEdge. I've have to give it a try.

I think it's called a "motion study", I can't remember, It's been a few months since using '07-'08, (last job, last year)... I'm using SW '04 on my home PC now... GRRRRR, I got spoiled by the those enhancements. Maybe do a search in the Help section for motion & animation, I'm sure it's there under something.... Damn short-term memory .
