Hi. I have no fusion360. Any way possible to make from "host" picture with the inventor professional 2024. Thank you.

Yes. Just draw a sketch and then create the extrude.

I believe the user is looking for what fusion can do, and that is importing an SVG and the geometry is extracted from that.

AutoCAD could trace the picture.

If you have an svg, you can open in Inkscape (free software) and export as DXF. Inventor can then import this.

If it's just a jpg/png/raster, you need to convert it to vector in another program like Adobe illustrator.

AutoCAD has some kind of raster plugin, but I've forgotten what it does.
