Since there does not appear to be a separate forum for filing bugs and other suboptimal encounters with Fusion, forgive me for appropriating this board. The following comments are in connection with Lofting:
1. Major peeve: in the Loft dialog box, the Profiles window displays black text on a dark blue background. I practically have to place my nose right up to the screen to see what is written. Please, can we have a bit of practical color sense, i.e. no black text against any dark colors? BTW, this visually challenging combination of colors is found in a number of other dialog boxes as well. Really guys, of the whole universe of colors available to you, this is what you feel is best?!
2. While Lofting, if one does not just click shapes, but lines and points, one gets error messages to effect that operation failed due to incorrect input geometry. That's fine and indeed what one would expect. But one also gets such this bizarre term 'Point Profile' to denote points clicked. Indeed, each time one clicks on something whether explicitly drawn or not, one gets a new number assigned to what one has clicked. Then, an operation or two later (whether successful or not), that new number is suddenly labelled with the prefix 'Profile'. Makes one wonder why the time delay in adding the word 'Profile'. So if one has clicked on a point during a Loft operation, instead of just disallowing that because it obviously make no sense, one gets these meaningless Profile assignments in the mean time. It is only later that one sees the error message indicating geometry has to be corrected. Are these delays due to having to run everything back to the cloud?

The foregoing probably has more to do with usability than bugs per se. I plan to file more of these as I come across them. Already, I can see it is going to be a long slog trying to learn Fusion360 while having to deal with system hangs/crashes and whatever is the antonym to 'user-friendliness'. But persevere we shall ...
