FUSION 360 Drop Down Menu

Anonymous — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 17:17:22 GMT

Is there a way to change the display size of the menus, or split them into smaller groups? When there is a very long description or many options to choose from, my display doesn't show all of the descriptions or available features. I've attached a shot of the CAM section for "Drilling Cycle Types" where the first 3 descriptions are cut off. I already have my screen resolution set to the highest res available and I can't scroll up or down on the description window. Any suggestions?

It looks like that tool tip might just be a bit too large. So I can properly report this internally, can you help me out with a few questions?

What is the screen resolution you're currently running on?

Can you upload a copy of your dxdiag report? It will help me to see what text scaling settings you're using as well.

Launch dxdiag.exe on your Windows computer
Select Save All Information
Please reply with the resulting *.TXT file attached

Thanks in advance for showing this to us!

Hey Nathan,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

What is the screen resolution you're currently running on?

For CAD and 3D3D modeling wok you should consider at least 1920 x 1018 resolution.

If your computer cannot display that higher screen resolution then chances are it will be running out of breath rather quickly when working with Fusion 360.

Working on a Macbook Pro provided by the school, for the most part it handles Fusion very well. Only if I have a ton of Chrome tabs opened up will it start to bog down, but that's because stupid Google is hogging all of the ram.
