BROWSER: Hole not working

[cekuhnen]

The hole command seems not to work on flat surfaces

Hmm... Hole seems to be working correctly on solid bodies with planar faces for me.  There must be something else going on for you, either with the model, or with your environment.  Let's start with the model first - please post your model here.

[edit]  I apologize:  I completely missed the big "BROWSER" in the title!!  Yes, you are correct, in the browser version, hole does not yet support directly placing a hole directly on a solid body.  This is in our backlog.  Currently, you can only place holes on sketches in this version

Hi,

I've found a trick to use "Hole" feature in "Browser".

Just select the face on which you wan't to place holes and Sketch some "points", stop Sketch and next select "Hole", you can now select your sketched point as center of holes...

It's not so bad...

But If you find a way to use "Draft" let me know. 😉

Salut Jean-Michel 🙂

It has been a while!

Creating a hole on a face is on our roadmap.  

And unfortunately draft has regressed, but we have a fix and will be deploying an update this week.

Regards

Jason

Any chance we can get some action on this? We'd really love to use fusion 360 with our 8th grade STEM students, but without the hole feature (and I'm assuming some others...my training just started today) this becomes useless to our students who only have access to chromebooks. Is this an avenue worth pursuing or should we give up if our district won't switch from Chromebooks?

Hi

Sorry for the delay.  

The current Fusion Browser does support holes made in Fusion Desktop, but it only shows a subset of the available features.  Also, while not a 1:1 match, you can still create holes in the Browser, but it requires a sketch with a point (of any sort) to exist first - as the hole's starting point.

However, there are currently no plans to extend the hole capabilities in the browser version unfortunately.
