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 of your ideas that have recently been accepted for development!
- Wood material selection for CAM
- Force kill process command
- Need to change corners path with Plasma and Waterjet
A number of ideas have also been captured in our backlog for future consideration:
- Make measured dimension visible from all angles
- Show what constraints prevent a sketch modification such as moving
- Visible/Hidden Workspace
- New component from selected bodies
- Slot along a sketch curve
- Add a “Normal” constraint for sketching
