Design history missing in Simulation Simplify Mode

eric_JAJ7V — Sun, 26 May 2024 01:22:29 GMT

The tutorial at https://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=SIM-TUT-11-ONE-HEATSINK shows the ability to access the model design history within the simulation to do simulations on model variants, but the design history is blank with the latest version Fusion (2.0.19215 x86_64).

From the tutorial:

Design history is blank when in simulation mode:

How can I access the design history to suppress features to test different variants of the model?

Hi @eric_JAJ7V,

I believe you have 'PowerSupplyDesign' open, instead of 'PowerSupplyEnclosure' (shown here):

Please let us know if you have any additional questions, comments, etc.

@henderh Thanks for the reply and the screenshot. This was a custom part. I thought the design history of the part was available to modify based upon the tutorial description, but based upon your screenshot I now see that it is only the design history of previous simplifications that are available.
