Customize Marking Menu?

hitchcocksamuel — Sat, 14 Dec 2024 20:30:26 GMT

I happen to never use the Press/Pull nor the Hole commands. I would like to replace them in the marking menu with tools that would be more useful to me. Currently I have changed the shortcut key for common commands as a workaround. I'm looking for something similar to how CUI works in AutoCAD. Thanks everyone

@hitchcocksamuel Hello, do you still need help with this question?

No. I gave up trying. I'm spoiled by how customizable AutoCAD is and would like to make my workflow similarly fast in Fusion. I'm not a ribbon clicker and was hoping the pie menu would solve this, but it's not possible any way that I can find. Keyboard shortcuts can be one letter only, so there are only so many keyboard keys to remap. Being able to tab through contextual boxes would be nice too, but that's another topic.

Hit the letter "S" and type whatever you want and it'll pop up....It's much more straightforward than customizing pies.

I don't use pies, but it's also possible to customize the pie as well, type in "how to change pie shortcuts in fusion 360" into chat GPT and it'll give you an answer.

This appears to be incorrect information.

There is a Marking Menu API Sample buried in the Fusion API docs here: https://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=GUID-c90ce6a2-c282-11e6-a365-3417ebc87622

Been playing with this for about 10 minutes so far and I can confirm that this does indeed allow customizing the marking menu.
