Updates of fusion 360

Anonymous — Tue, 29 Nov 2016 14:30:21 GMT

I would like to get some details on the following updates/improvements made to Fusion 360 since last year. They are as follows,

1. Fusion Learning (Help) has improved a lot. What major changes were exactly made?

2. Sharing projects and collaborating through Fusion 360 was problematic in the past, but there seem to have no more issues, the collaboration is smooth and reliable now. Can you please offer me some detail on it?

3. There is new simulation tools and new mesh environment. Can you please describe them for me?
Thank you,

Hi @Anonymous,

I'll try to answer as much as I can out of your questions.

We have grown the development team of the learning content. This has allowed us to add more examples and videos throughout the entire help domain. I am actually one of the new additions brought in with simulation experience, the entire simulation section of the help was re-written to contain more details with new tutorials and videos about the simulation types.
We are making constant efforts to improve collaboration and data management. Without more details about the problems you were having it is difficult to really discuss the changes.
The Simulation tools were revamped to use the Cloud solving and the Nastran solver. The number of analysis types doubled from 4 to 8. The analysis types are described in the documentation here. As for the meshing space, some of the new features are showcased as preview items and are discussed here.

Does that help or not really scratch the surface of what you were looking for?

Thanks,
Todd
