Your Ideas from the Fusion 360 IdeaStation

We take your suggestions very seriously as they help to shape Fusion 360, so please share your ideas and vote for new features / enhancements you would like to see. Here are a few popular submissions from the week:

• Dark Mode for Fusion 360– After staring at a monitor/screen for a long period of time, the ability to customize into a dark mode would help reduce eye strain and would be much appreciated.
• Creating Drawings – Different Layers of Colors– Similar to other CAD software, have different layers or colors that can be selected or set for each type of drawing feature.
• Nesting– Having multiple CNC machines make me really want to see nesting!
