Accepted, however I do not believe we are not so much "talking about three different scenarios" but more, I believe, we are talking about the underlying cause experienced in three different scenarios.
Open any browser. Do something, press the escape key and see what happens? Ah, nothing (as expected). Open any program and do the same. Press alt.ctrl.del and try to end a task (this one may be one of the exceptions, but only depending on the program it is trying to force close) - very few will respond to such action on behalf of the user. This is not so much a Fusion360 thing albeit they can fix it if they doctor the windows crap we get lumbered with or put out the resources to create their own code to get away from the (often) faulty C++ or suchlike generic code routines.
Decades ago I was writing programs for micros (Intel 8085's, 6802's, 6500's, z80's etc) and the program code had to be right otherwise it would not work. Period. I had never heard of Forth, Cobol, Pascal etc nor never needed to use them. I was writing a program for a specific purpose and there was ONLY the user, no sockets for networks, now Google, no uplinking, nothing more than perhaps simple serial interface.
CAD is complex, very very complex. It would make an accountants relationship database look like a kids broken toy. HOWEVER, under any circumstances, there is no excuse for "excluding" the user from any programattical function or activity be it in this screen, or that screen or this or that function.
I have programmed, I have used many programs (as we all do) and I have wanted to throw the *king computer against the wall (as we all do) many a time. Prodigies that write programs need to firstly understand the real world before imposing it on the world.
Like I said - can't press the emergency stop because I am currently cutting your hand off.
Sorry for all that, but this is one issue that pains me time and time and time again and every bit of software I get does the same thing over and over and over again. When will people learn!
We agree, and have been working on providing the ability to interrupt compute. Unfortunately, it's proven to be a rather large task. We're implementing some core framework changes that should make this possible, but we're not yet close enough to provide a date. Moving this to Future Consideration while the work continues.
A lot of times can happen that a user enters an incorrect command, for example making a radius much bigger than possible, or presspulling a face that involving a much older operation in history time, and the program take a while to make that operation and often the result is a crash, is it possible to add a function that stops the current operation, pressing an escape button, and go back to the workspace, it should be useful and less annoying.

With each new version (and I've been using Fusion for close to 2 years) this is becoming more and more important. At some point it seems it would make sense to halt some other efforts until this is fixed. I think we're getting there.
Hi, I'd like to hear about the progress one this one 🙂 It is still annoying as hell, yesterday I lost many hours waiting for operations to finish which I noticed would fail (because they take a very long time).
Kevin Schneider (I cannot tag you for some reason), you mentioned this was up for mid 2015 🙂
It would of course also be nice to have a progress bar while long calculations are happening.
