Saving robot TCP trace as “curve”

Community member question: 

Hello DELMIA Robotics community, I am trying to save the trajectory of the robot after the simulation of my program. I used the “Motion Trace” command in the “Analysis & Output” tab of the robot programming app. I would like to save the TCP trace before & after my modification in the robot program, save the splines & apply curvature analysis on it to see differences.

Fabrication

On Machine Definition, allow continuous rotation as rotation limits

Ideation Funnel:

We promote this request coming from a DELMIA User Champion as an Idea to R&D for a coming Release or FD.

Visit the community to look at the idea and how it is promoted.
