Inspired by my partner Hanen BDIOUI ‘s expertise, I’ve embarked on a journey to explore the Creative Experience application. Through this series, I’ll share weekly insights, guiding you step-by-step on transforming a 3D model into an interactive experience. In the first section, we will learn how to interactively open and close the microwave model’s door, with Creative Experience: Unlocking the Potential of Open/Close

2D Button

Create 2D Button

I created a 2D button by right-clicking on the 2D section in the Project Panel.

Open/Close Feature

Activation Key

To activate the command, you can select a button from the list, as shown in the picture.

Scenario: Open/Close

In this scenario, we are unlocking the potential of Creative Experience: Unlocking the Potential of Open/Close. The scenario we have created here means that every time I click the “Open/Close Cover” button, it will open and close the component named Cover A between -90 degrees and 0 degrees. (Here, the switch feature allows bidirectional operation.) This feature enables dynamic interaction with the 3D model, giving users control over the component’s movement.
