CAM Preview Does Not Show Component Values

Anonymous — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 14:50:43 GMT

There is a topic about "3D PCB Does Not Show Component Values"

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-electronics/3d-pcb-does-not-show-component-values/td-p/9721639

Response From Autodesk (in 2020) was "The values are not showing on 3D PCB on purpose to make the board clean. We will consider to add an option to show the values in future release."

But, why even CAM preview not showing Values, after selecting value...?

It's more necessary to check quickly how does the board looks like after manufacturing...

But I have to export Gerber file and upload it on online "gerber viewer" tool to check the actual preview...

So, In another view Fusion CAM preview is useless...!!

Also, tried many ways to set my edited "CAM job file" as default, but failed in Eagle and Fusion also,

There always default template set after restart...

(only custom CAM set default in selected project on Fusion)

Hello @Anonymous,

Thank you for for posting, the CAM preview function is very simple. It has a hard coded set of layers that it follows. I'll make an enhancement request for this, for it to follow the default CAM job.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,
