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 popular submissions from the week:
- prepressVW2P3’s idea being about Select multiple contours simultaneously for 2d contour or 2d engrave in CAM has been accepted! We are currently working on it and will keep everyone posted on our progress.
- Sanguish’s idea of having small origin plane labels visible on the planes has been set as a future consideration. In the next January update, you’ll see XYZ axis on the Viewcube. We have captured Sanguish’s request and will look into a better solution.
- Michaengineeringsolutions suggested that we improve our cloud status messaging when things aren’t at 100%. We are actively working on improving this experience – it is one of our top priority projects to nail down.
- hoh0003VA6MC’s idea of having the ability to create a spiral along curved path is currently a future consideration idea. This is something we want to do and is in our backlog, but we are not sure when we will be able to get to it since there are higher priority projects we are currently working on.
