Fusion 360 CAD drawings

Good Morning

I am just learning how to use Fusion360. I am doing a project in AutoCAD 2016 - 3D and I have download parts of it to Fusion360. Can I add materials to this drawing from Fusion 360.

Yes,

For future reference, in 3D world we refer to "drawings" as the 2D views intended for printing on paper. The 3D is referred to as "model" or component or body...

I recommend that you go through the Tutorials.

I don't think there is any misunderstanding in what he means. I find the @TheCADWhisperers attempt to educate a user prefectly agreeable. Every time a user refers to a drawing and then points to a 3D model I shudder!
