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:
- Partial Cuts in 2D Planes – It would be interesting to be able to create this type of detail. I think it is something fundamental in the design to facilitate the understanding of the view.
- Align Tool Improvement – Currently the align tool does not allow to enter an angle value. It just allows to increment in steps of 90 degrees. Entering a dedicated angle is appreciated.
- Equation Driven Curves – I feel there is a need for function based curves such as those found in Inventor, Solidworks, NX and Grasshopper.
