Piston Constraint

Reference

Panel:

Physics ‣ Rigid Body Constraint

Type:

Piston

A piston permits translation along the X axis of the constraint object. It also allows rotation around the X axis of the constraint object. It is like a combination of the freedoms of a slider with the freedoms of a hinge (neither of which is very free alone).

Options

Limits

  • X Axis

    Enables/disables limit translation around X axis.

    • Lower

      Lower limit of X axis translation.

      Upper

      Upper limit of X axis translation.

    X Angle

    Enables/disables limit rotation around X axis.

    • Lower

      Lower limit of X axis rotation.

      Upper

      Upper limit of X axis rotation.
