Imagine you have a Horizontal Cylinder - Rod fully collapsed and a Roller 2" in front of the rod.

Now you extend the rod (Linear Motor) and when the Rod comes with contact with The Roller the Rod pushes the Roller.

Some progress:

- It looks like in Properties--> Document--> Annotations Display the box Always Display Text at the same size must be cleared in details and assy (where you do the annimation).

- It looks like the first Part1 you put into the assy controls the size of the (dimensions) font in the *.EASM, so control the size of the font in Part1 (Annotation Font)
 
- It looks like the first Part1 you put into the assy controls the size of the (dimensions) font in the *.EASM, so control the size of the font in Part1 (Annotation Font)

- It looks like I was wrong - it's the size of the font in ASSY that controls the size of the font in the eDrawings.

- It looks like the following is still valid:

Here's another tip:

1. Create a physical simulation in SolidWorks
2. Calculate the simulation
3. In Animator, click on the animation wizard
4. Select Physical Simulation

This will put your physical simulation on a timeline which you can then edit.
