Export issues

Hello,

I am coming across a strange issue when I try to export files from Fusion360. See the images below:

Above shows what the file looks like in fusion. I'm trying to export into a DXF and below is the image I get:

I'm confused why this is happening. Tried this with a different file format (.dwg) with a different 3rd party software and it looks the exact same as the image above. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Zac

Hi Zac,

If you import the same DXF back to Fusion, does it look wrong too? If yes, this will be a Fusion DXF export bug. If no, it will be a bug in the 3rd party tool.

Please share the .f3d file here. Forum experts can help take a look.

Many thanks!

Hi Johnson,

Thanks for your reply. I tried to import the DXF back to fusion and it actually won't work - the status bar has been stuck in the middle for about 10 minutes as seen in the picture below.

See the attached .f3d file as requested.

Thank you,

Zac

You do not need to use the Export function to get your DXF. The Screencast will show you how. DXF is attached also.

John, thanks a lot for providing this detailed response. Not only did this fix my issue, but also learned something very useful about Fusion in the process.

Thanks a lot,

Zac
