In this video, we'll learn about sharing and updating designs.
00:07
After completing this step, you'll be able to create a share link.
00:12
In Fusion 360, we're going to carry on with our CAD CAM Milling dataset.
00:16
At this point we want to talk about sharing our designs.
00:20
If we go to our data panel and we take a look at the most current design which you might need to refresh your folder.
00:28
Inside of here, we have CAD CAM Milling dataset 1 verify.
00:32
If we use the version drop down, note that we have an option to view details on web.
00:37
Let's go ahead and select view details on web.
00:41
Once your design has been opened on the web, there is a couple bits of information we want to make sure we explore.
00:47
We have a design references section which shows uses, used in and drawings.
00:54
This design doesn't have any external links so there are no drawings or there are no other designs that's referencing,
01:01
but the used in shows us our .fssd File.
01:06
This fssd file, if we click on overview is going to show us are setup sheet that was created that's referenced back to that original design.
01:15
It's going to load that reference data and allow us to see it on the web if we wish.
01:19
I'm going to go back to my verifications folder and note that we can see both fssd files,
01:25
or our setup sheet files as well as our CAD CAM lathes and milling dataset, assuming they're in the same folder.
01:33
We're going to select just our milling dataset and we're going to take a look at viewing this on the web.
01:39
At the very top, we have overview and view and we're going to go ahead and select view and take a look at this in our browser.
01:46
You'll note as we rotate this around, it's going to open up in the last view that we created.
01:52
This has our vice holding the part in our second Op.
01:56
So if we rotate this around, you can see that are part is loaded in the vice and in the upper left hand corner we have our design as well as CAM.
02:04
If we select CAM it shows us Op 1 and Op 2, if we select Op 2 notice that it shows all of our tools,
02:13
it shows the Vice and it gives us a preview of those toolpaths.
02:19
We also have our view Op 2 ISO which helps us orient our view even if we have to zoom in.
02:26
So this is a great way for us to share this data on the web and help somebody visualize the toolpaths that are being created for this part.
02:33
Also note that we have a preview of the stock on the screen, the material that's created and the material that's removed.
02:41
We can view the design which will let us see the design without the use of the toolpaths, the tools or the stock.
02:48
So once again, this is a great way for us to pass along some information. If somebody wants to add comments about our design.
02:56
For example, if they want to leave a comment about Op 1, it's hard to see because of the vice.
03:02
So it's important to make sure that we save this version without the vice shown. So that way it can help somebody identify these toolpaths.
03:09
Well we can always use these options to do things like mark up or leave comments.
03:15
If we want to add a comment on a point we can select a specific area and we can leave a comment that says leave 0.1 mm stock between Ops.
03:30
So that comment will be carried along with the design.
03:34
If we go back to overview, information here is shown on the right hand side noting that we have a comment on a point.
03:42
The point is shown in red in the image and if we click on it we can see that comment here in the browser.
03:48
Another thing we can do is create what's called a share link.
03:52
This can be done directly in Fusion 360 or here when we're viewing our designs on the web.
03:57
The share link option will allow us to create a share link and even allow users to download this to their computer.
04:04
If you have multiple users sharing the data in your project,
04:08
they'll be able to see the exact same thing in the web by simply having access to this dataset.
04:14
If you give them a share link, they'll also be able to navigate to this dataset on the web.
04:18
However, if you have somebody that does not have direct access to your project, if you give them a share link, it'll be external to your dataset.
04:25
You can toggle whether or not you want them to be able to download it.
04:29
You also know that we can see that this design is currently open and in use by a user.
04:35
You can see that on the left hand side inside of the folder structure.
04:39
And we can also go back to the top level of our design and see any of our projects, sub folders or designs that were created.
04:48
And here for example we can go back to modeling and see any of the original models that were created as well as any of their versions.
04:56
Once again this is based on users that have access to your project. Let's go ahead and navigate back to Fusion 360.
05:05
If we expand the comments in the bottom of our browser you'll note that a new comment has been added.
05:10
There's a chain link icon and it gives you the comment that was left, leave .1 mm stock between ups.
05:17
If we click on this it's going to open up the image and it shows you a red dot where it was placed on that point.
05:23
So all the information that was captured in the web is also carried back into the design in Fusion
05:30
Lastly, if we use our file drop down, we have the option to create a share link by using this public link option,
05:37
once again creating a link and determining whether or not this can be downloaded or if it requires a password, any time you disable this link,
05:46
anyone's that you've sent out previously will no longer be active.
05:50
This of course, does not apply if somebody has downloaded a copy of your design,
05:54
but anybody who has yet to access it will no longer gain access by that link.
05:59
If you've made any changes to the designs, make sure that you do save them before moving on.
