Your Ideas from the Fusion 360 IdeaStation<\/STRONG><\/FONT>\"Picture2.png\"<\/P>

 <\/P>

We take your suggestions very seriously as they help to shape Fusion 360, so please share your ideas<\/A> and vote for new features \/ enhancements you would like to see. Here are a few from this week.<\/P>

 <\/P>

Scale in units (mm\/inches) and not constrained scale<\/A><\/P>

I would love to have a function (mainly in sketch mode) where I can scale the selected things in a unit of my choice.<\/SPAN><\/P>

 <\/P>

CAM Spiral Center Selection<\/A> <\/P>

It would be nice to select the center of a Spiral Tool path like an Entry Point. When you select a sketch circle or Model circle, you get the center point. <\/P>

 <\/P>

Keep sketch open<\/A><\/SPAN><\/P>

I would like an option to keep a sketch open\/active until turned off. I draw a sketch which accommodates all sorts of features and it gets turned off after the first action, then I have to go through the tree and turn it back on to continue. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

 <\/P><\/DIV>

 

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions!<\/SPAN><\/P>

 <\/SPAN><\/P>

Have a story to share? We would love to hear more about you and how you’re using Fusion 360! Shoot me an email at Justin.Hoey@autodesk.com<\/SPAN><\/A><\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
