Hi Fusion folks,
Early Fusion 360 adopter, student and amateur programmer.
Fusion 360 is without a doubt the future of CAD. But i would really love to see an improvement on the scripting environment.
I recently undertook a project that demanded some scripting. I know python moderately well, so I attempted to work with Fusion 360's spyder environment.
It was less then ideal.
This led me to try Rhino. It was a dream (only in the scripting interface). There was clear documentation right in the script editor, with lengthy documentation available as well, examples and hints, and clear modules for doing vector math, and creating objects in the 3d environment. I didn't even need to look at tutorials or documentation on line.
It seems like the environment caters more to people developing addins than to for people looking to implement small custom scripts directly in Fusion for specific projects.
It would be a dream to see the Scripting environment get some revision and improvement so that people dont have to look else where for this kind of tool that is so close to existing in Fusion.
