I frequently use Fusion 360 to do CAM work from 2d vectors from other programs (e.g. Illustrator). It's pretty straight forward to import a DXF or SVG, extrude it, maybe make a few adjustments, then setup the CAM operations.
The issue is when the underlying designs change, often in very minor ways. There isn't any easy way to replace the contents of sketch with a file, hopefully preserving features which haven't changed at all. This means I have to select everything, delete it, reimport the DXF, then edit my extrusions and CAM operations to the new sketch lines. This gets very tedious when doing prototyping where the underlying files change many times.
I would like a simple workflow for working with changing 2d design files. A simple "replace sketch with DXF" that does it's best to only import changes lines feature would be great. Better would be the concept of an "external" sketch, which can easily be refreshed from an external file (the link to that file would be maintained).
Am I missing something already present? What tricks do other people use to make this process easier?
Thanks.
