Incredible update, guys and gals! The extrude feature auto selecting a single profile... the offset command... svg updates.... I love them all!! :D

[evilpanky]

Additive materials! Absolutely unreal, well done guys!

Still no wrap geometry to surface. Would be nice to have one, so that assets can be added to a 3d surface without redoing the added asset.

Thank you for refining the svg import! The file export is going to be very helpful as well! You guys rock!

One improvement in the daily workflow this update is nice (the auto selection of profiles), but I'd love to see a handful come every update. Here's some examples of very simple features which are 90% of the way to existing already (and are slightly impractical or impossible to do with the public API; more of a fault in the API than in how easy they are to implement):

* make a shortcut for edit feature, so you can just click on something and press it to edit where it came from. This would be extra cool if it listed all features modifying that given piece of geometry everywhere in the timeline and allow you to edit each one of them. This is currently in a right click menu but I want to press a button to get it even faster as it is one of the actions I do the most every day. This could equally be implemented as a timeline filter, but editing the most recent feature still needs to be one keystroke.
* make a shortcut for editing the sketch associated with an extrude, revolve or any other feature. This ties into the edit feature thing as sometimes you want to edit the sketch rather than the extrusion. This might be ugly if there are multiple sketches but I'd personally not be too bothered if it doesn't work in these cases as the vast majority of features have only one sketch.
* add a Selection Priority for profiles to make it easier to select those in sketches when they are all you want to select
* add a system for temporary view filters where you can temporarily hide or isolate something with one keystroke then reset all the hides and isolates with another. Basically what Revit has
* make it easier to name features, maybe put a name field in the feature creation box somewhere?
* This is a big one: make it possible to create custom shortcuts for commands shown only in context menus, for example isolate or activate or find in browser or <...>

Thanks for this another update, again. I appreciate that there's a team updating frequently this product.
But like every time, i have to ask you if you plan to create more reverse engineering tools for fusion or enhance the existing one !? Like form fitting, real 3d sketching on mesh, easier mesh section tool, deviation tool... even as a paid addin, no problem !
The problem is i use f360 a lot and i dont want to buy another software (solidedge, solidworkds, ansys spaceclaim) to see few months after these tools in my favorite software !

Please create a Fusion versión friendly with the iPad as Shapr3D did it.

[fly-high-me]

Thanks again for making this awesome tool free for hobbyists

[jonboggs]

Are there any plans for a frame generator like in Inventor?

[TorIvanBoine]

When can we have local rendering of turntables?

[evanlacava]

Great CAM upgrades. But still no trim toolpath? Would be very helpful!

[andriosz]

Any plans for a step stool in the future videos ? :P

[zakuma]

Point Along a Spline does not update its position when changing value from the Parameters Menu

[KGB]

Still no break lines for the design, hope it will be there one day :)

[brocktechnology]

I've been using fusion 360 for around a year, I don't recognize the software you're talking about.

[sanketpatil]

Cool. Fusion people's keeps improving the features for more productivity.

[ruisantosfonzico]

full of bugs. when i export and insert stock from first setup to second one the stock go to a random location and cant work with that. machines configurations that i add configure before with setup sheet and post processor settings went crazy, cant post anything with this. need to manually select post processores. why allways u make a update u end screwing post processors? dont u guys test it?

[ilyadin]

hello everybody! Please help me, how I can update my fusion 360 with student licence?

[jenniferbosch]

Based on the amount of worked hours Autodesk engineers put into this company.
I have discouraged my boys from following this path of creating, innovating, making, amusing, it’s not worth it, this type of work infuses users into auto pilot.
A persons life and family is valuable. A machine and software will always be a machine and a software that can be replaced by improved software.
Family we only get to have one.

Guys, these updates, the work of the development team is greatly appreciated but your videos scripts are terrible. All of you are capable of just talking normally in a much more informative and natural manner. I don't know why you don't? If management are insisting that you say things like "Wow, marty those NC programs are definitely going to help me.... blah blah" That is not real. Please tell you're masters its making these things hard to watch. Just be yourselves and that will work.
