User Parameter Fundamentals - Everything You Need To Know About Parameters #Fusion360 #Parameters

In this video we are going to expand on User Parameters by going back to the basics. To understand how powerful User Parameters can be we need to understand how to apply them. So we will begin by looking at Sketch Dimensions and Constraints. There are 7 main areas to cover.
1. Dimensions, Constraints and Linked Dimensions
2. Creating a Basic User Parameter
3. Naming Parameters "On the fly"
4. Linking Parameters to Features
5. Advanced Operators and Functions
6. Sketching Construction Geometry and Driven Dimensions
7. Limitations

Something that i found annoying is, i'm trying to make a spool for cable in Fusion 360 and i am unable to do the following:
for some reason when i put the second CableWidth in, it then invalidates the entire thing.

So this video has gotten more views than I expected. Curious to know what was the most useful or what was possibly missing from the video?

Very solid tutorial! I came looking for the differences between user parameters and model parameters and you gave me a clear explanation and many tips to boot. Keep up the good work!

good job buddy, dont stop. keep cranking out new videos. I am a fusion360 fanatic and most of the channels that I've been following stop uploading videos after a certain amount of time. I really want to achieve mastery in this software but unfortunately for some reason, they stop uploading.

Thank you for making this. Even though I use User Parameters a lot (pretty much every design), I didn’t really understand how easy is was to pick relative parameters by clicking on the dimension or the additional feature parameters that get generated automatically, etc. Learned several things that will help!

This video was very informative and well presented.

I really hope they would add the If logic at some point.

Great vid! Thanks. Still think params on the fly should be a user param by default. Just wondering why you dont use a diagonal line at 35:40?

[yosofya]

thanks for the great tutorial. I am trying to make sort of report of my user parametrs along with the design including all the parametrs i have set like wood thickness, total height, etc to send it for manufacturing. is there a way to do that ?

Awesome info. I’ve been looking for a solution to specific problem I guess. I’m making a cabinet with drawers, but want to have the ability to change the number of drawers based off reveal between each and viceversa; and have the actual drawer box also change proportionally. Any advise where to start? And videos to watch. Thanks for your time

I have student version of fusion 360 ans I'm not able to find the change parameter option under modify.
