Re: Can you change the iteration time step in Creo Mechanism?

I mean when the analysis is running it's choosing a time step to measure a measure like position for example. I think Mechanisms uses a fourth order Runge-Kutta to solve the equations of motion of time?

 

In this example I've created a projectile ball and taken a measure of its y-position over time. You see from exporting the graph to excel; mechanisms has chosen a time step of 0.01 seconds from the first picture and then when it approaches the termination condition i set up, the time step changes to 6 decimal places (figure 2).

 

Do I have any control over this? Say i wanted the whole simulation time step to be 6 decimal places?
