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 submissions from the week:

• Why is move, copy, mirror, et al. not possible with groups? – Grouping is one of the most important features in CAD. So why is there no possibility to move, copy, mirror, etc. on groups?
• SVV in CAM – Could you add this “SSV” (Spindle Speed Variation) feature that Haas has on their machines?
• Data panel – Typing the first 2 letters of the folder you are looking for should bring it up.
