Back in January, we added the <strong>Resolve External Components<\/strong> preview to let you open assemblies with unresolved external components and attempt to resolve them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As this comes out of preview, any time you try to open a design with unresolved external components, you\u2019ll see a notification and then you can open it. In the <strong>Browser<\/strong>, right-click an unresolved component, then select <strong>Resolve Component<\/strong> or <strong>Delete<\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to inserted components, we now also handle:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Derive sources that are directly missing&nbsp;<\/li><li>Derive sources that contain unresolved external components&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>External components will become unresolved when a design or its project is archived or deleted, and may appear unresolved for certain people due to permission restrictions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a design is missing because it\u2019s deleted, it will be missing for everyone. However, it\u2019s important to note that if a design is missing because you don\u2019t have access to the project where it\u2019s located, it may be available for other project members. In this case, we recommend that you work to gain access to resolve external components before you make any significant changes to the design.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you really do need to make any significant changes to a design in this state before you resolve the components, you\u2019ll need to use the new <strong>Modify &gt; Compute Unresolved<\/strong> command first, which will compute only the features related to unresolved external components in the assembly. You can run <strong>Compute Unresolved<\/strong> manually to see the outcome or Fusion 360 will automatically invoke it when you first edit the design to ensure you are working on the latest computed state.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend that you resolve missing components as soon as you encounter them. They are not expected to be maintained over the long term and you should address them as general design maintenance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/help.autodesk.com\/view\/fusion360\/ENU\/?contextId=ASM-RESOLVE-EXTERNAL-COMPONENTS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn how to resolve external components in an assembly.<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"new-pattern-type-option\"><strong>New Pattern Type option<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1164\" height=\"555\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-1-9.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-1-9.jpg 1164w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-1-9-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-1-9-1024x488.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-1-9-768x366.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1164px) 100vw, 1164px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve added a new <strong>Type <\/strong>option in the following <strong>Pattern <\/strong>tools, to make it easier to switch between:&nbsp;Rectangular Pattern, Circular Pattern, and Pattern On Path.

Manufacturing energy consumption, alongside material usage, is a key contributor to the total CO2 emissions during the realization of designs. We want to start giving you visibility into how much energy your manufacturing toolpaths are consuming, helping you make more informed decisions and altering your design and manufacturing practices with the aim of reducing overall operational impact. The FFF energy consumption calculator is the first step in this process, by analyzing your generated tool paths and taking different key variables (Build plate, Print Temperatures, Print Speed and Print time) into account, this new feature calculates and displays a predicted energy consumption value within the print statistics tab.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/help.autodesk.com\/view\/fusion360\/ENU\/?contextId=MFG-AM-HOW-TO-DISPLAY-PRINT-STATISTICS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about displaying print statistics<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Center-to-Center Distance for Manual Inspection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"702\" height=\"114\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-09-06-at-4.42.08-PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-09-06-at-4.42.08-PM.jpg 702w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-09-06-at-4.42.08-PM-300x49.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 702px) 100vw, 702px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This preview lets you choose how to measure the distance between the centers of two holes or bosses in a manual inspection.
