most time consuming, incompetent software

Anonymous — Sat, 24 Aug 2019 20:21:36 GMT

finally learned how to cut an object. go to cut something else, and it'll leave an invisible block instead of actually cutting the object. takes hours to get one simple thing done. its not convenient in any regard. its like they designed it to be frustrating to use. sometimes it'll work, other times its just mentally ill. cutting an object shouldn't be so difficult. combining objects shouldn't be difficult. shortcut, combine highlighted objects... how ****ing hard is that?

can't rotate an object. if you want to fix grid position to align it with a point to cut an overhanging piece of an object off, THE GRID DISAPPEARS..

All the things you mentioned are very easy to accomplish is you learn the proper process and theories. I first question to you is: Have you tried to learn the application or are you just jumping in and trying to guess on how to do certain operations? If you would attach your model and explain what you want to accomplish, there are many users that will be happy to guide you in the correct methods of working in Fusion 360.

i am fed up with it. if i want to change the shape of a fillet to fit a curve around an object i put on after, it will return to the exact moment of process where i put the fillet in initially. showing the object without the sphere. so i then i have to use a step by step process, which is without necessity. the software is garbage, and this site sells over priced subscriptions. needs to be removed from humanity for their oppressive measures against human ingenuity and creation.

Since you have this overwhelming desire to stop using the Fusion 360 application, you should go to this website and follow the instructions to remove the complete application from your system. You and all the other users of Fusion 360 will be happier.

No disrespect but I've used CADD and Cam software for 20 years, Inventor, Solidworks , Autocadd, BobCad and others, trust me ,this Fusion 360 if very good software. I have found the best way to learn new software is figure out how they want you to do things, forget how you have done it or think it should be done, but what matters is how they the programmers set it up to be used. This is such a simple thing, but was really hard for me to learn.

Good luck what ever you do.

I strongly disagree that you have 'spent months' learning how to use this software.

What is more likely is you have spent months using the software incorrectly according to how you think it should function.

You are, of course, entitled to your opinion.

I have been using fusion for maybe 1 month, and I can already accomplish almost everything I will ever need to be able to do (and the things you mentioned are pretty simple actually).

Is it perfect? No.

Does it need improvements? Yes.

Is it 'inconvenient software'? Far from it.
