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 some important updates on recent submissions:
- We combined the votes for Helical curves tool with the Improved Helix idea since they were the same idea. This idea is being considered for future updates.
- We also combined the thread and hole tool idea with an existing (and very popular) hole wizard idea. The team has this project prioritized and will start working on it very soon.
- jmcgee3GRY3’s idea to save a CAM Simulation as a Body is a great idea, we have this captured in our backlog of projects and have marked this idea as Fusion Consideration.
- yoshimitsuspeed’s idea of Changing dimension and text color in drawings is currently being worked is accepted and currently being worked on!
- BartsGarage’s idea of having Angle falloff material is being reviewed and discussed by our team. More to come on whether we have materials like this already or if we should create them.
