Fusion 360 won't save as stl

Anonymous — Mon, 29 Oct 2018 19:34:03 GMT

Hello guys,

as the title suggest, i can't save bodies as stl anymore, the program does exactly nothing, also if I try it again fusion crashes. Same problem for exporting. I tried reinstall and clear cache, nothing works. Can anybody help me?

This probably has more to do with the file or settings of export rather than your installation of Fusion 360. I can export no problems on a variety of files. Can you share a design with the issue?

I don't think it's the file, none of all my files work either now, it crashes on all of them. 2 weeks ago all worked perfectly.

That is more telling then, and i did not have any issues with that file. Are you sending in the crash reports?

I did that, no reply yet, was just hoping this is a common bug and I can finally start printing, thanks for the quick reply

Are you sending to a print utility when you click it?

No I don't, I tried it, at the time I want to click where my printing application lays, nothing happens and sometimes it crashes.

Can you upload your logs? The crash buckets into a group of them and the only common thread is STL export. But its as many people as i expect. Its very possible its something like graphics but i'd like to see the logs first.

I'm also suspecting the graphics, I recently changed the graphics card to a newer gtx 1060.

Just switched to my old one, same problem...

Logs are attached

(will be going to sleep now I'll reply tomorrow)

I had the same issue today. Yesterday all was working well.

I read on another thread that ensuring there are no stl files in the location you are saving to works as a workaround.

This is what I have resorted to, and I can can now save.

Not sure what has caused this issue though.

I tried reinstalling Fusion 360, but that made no difference.
