Hi, I sent a request for information about simulating permanent magnets with
2 attachments (under 1 MB) to this list and to Alessandra and it was not
posted here and no response from DeltaKnowledge. I'm hoping someone can
write a JS to make permanent magnets for Chrono. The problem with Magnetism
in RS is that one magnet can only interact with one other magnet (not with
many other magnets ... nor will RS work with many magnets interacting with
many magnets).
I'm currently working on animating a complex stick/skeleton structure in RS
which may end up in Chrono. Matthias Kappenberg is helping lots. Yes, I'll
write a tutorial when it is finished.
There's lots to learn in Chrono and translating from the manual to my needs
requires lots of trial and error and hair pulling and teeth gnashing as well
as lots of guessing. Learning hurts. I'd sure like to see Permanent Magnet
on the Tool Bar with Neodymium as one of the options. I know it's a little
early for the wish list but since there is so much there it seems that it
wouldn't take much to write the JS to make it happen. There is so much very
useful mechanical simulation that it will take some time to get used to the
UI etc. One such difficulty I found is placing the chain links (spherical)
can only be achieved by bringing them into the Input Plane and then moving
them to positions off the IP if needs be. Using the Measuring System to
place them in space would surely be simpler if possible. But ... what a nice
package for a plug-in ... and the price is a gift compared to the
competition.
Cheers, Chuck Henry

Subject: No Word on Chrono !
Hi List :
Seems odd to me that Chrono is finally released and there
has not been a single mail that talks about Chrono a little
bit .
Looks like a couple of people have actually purchased it ,
but can anyone talk about their experiences so far ? Looked
in the forum but no threads there either .
Seems very odd that such an event would not generate a barage
of mails .
Very strange .
