Navigation Bar at Bottom of Screen Missing

jasdac — Wed, 11 Jan 2023 22:36:43 GMT

I'm running Windows 11 on a Microsoft Surface Book 2 and recently the Navigation Bar at the bottom of the workspace has disappeared and can not be restored via keyboard shortcut or from FILE menu selection. In addition, when you click the HOME position on the "globe" in the upper right hand corner of the workspace, the model does not shrink to fit the workspace view (it falls off screen at the bottom). Is there a setting I need to adjust to correct this condition or is this a known bug after an update from Autodesk or Microsoft?

Fusion 360 lately has some issues starting up in full screen mode. This may not be your issue but it is worth checking. Click on the Maximize window icon or resize your screen to just see if all is there. If this helps and you are still missing your Navigation Panel, select File menu and then View, and see if the Navigation Panel is Hidden.

Hi @jasdac

It sounds like you're experiencing a bug in Autodesk Fusion 360. It's possible that the problem was caused by an update from either Autodesk or Microsoft, but without more information it's difficult to say for sure. One potential solution would be to try resetting the user interface settings in Fusion 360 by going to "File" > "Options" > "User Interface" and clicking the "Reset" button. If that doesn't work, it may be worth checking the Autodesk website to see if there are any known issues or solutions related to this problem. Additionally, you could contact Autodesk support or submit a ticket to troubleshoot the issue.

Most likely yes, I am just providing additional information, just in case if the user will not find John's answer to be the correct solution.
I've seen people having this issue prior and the suggestion that I provided has fixed the problem.

What is the link to the “Autodesk website” that you reference?

What is the link to submit a support ticket that you reference?

I had this same issue, including the timeline. I clicked on the maximize window icon and my navigation bar and timeline were restored.

Thank you,
