Wrong Designation in 3D

Anonymous — Sun, 15 Mar 2020 11:18:23 GMT

Hi,

I draw a scematic of 555 oscillator used in tutorials and then created PCB. There is not any problem. And then switch to 3d view and problems arised. 555 is in wrong orientation, all holes and pins doesn't match.

If i switch to PCB and re-switch to 3d view new problems arise. Fusion cannot create view however it did before.

What i tried to solve this problems:

1-I redraw schematic and did again all from beginning.

2-I deleted all libraries and then re-downloaded them.

3-I installed windows from stratch and installed Fusion. I did all from beginning.

None of these steps solve this problem.

I am looking for kind helps.

I tried this process with another computer. I added an image. As can be seen, 555 is orientated truly but holes and pins still don't match.

Working for 2 days, i decided this is a bug or something like that. Capacitors and ICs are placed wrong way; resistors are placed in true way. However all holes and pins are not match.

Hello @Anonymous ,

Sorry to hear that you are having trouble.

Our development team has been working on a fix about this.

Before this issue is addressed, could you please try below workaround to remove the cached files (.f3d and .txt) from the circuitslib folder and try again?

You could find the circuitslib folder from below path on your Windows OS:

C:\Users\#### YourOSAccount ####\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\### YourAccount###\circuitslib

By the way, if your OS is Mac, you could find the circuitslib folder from:

Users/###UserName###/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/###YourAccount###/Circuitslib

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Helen

In case someone is searching for the mentioned path: the second last component is an uppercase string, probable the user identifier, not the user

`C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\KUDGR43L932V\circuitslib`
