Can't find Netfab "add-in"

Hi everyone, I'm new to Fusion 360 and want to add Netfab into it so I can repair geometry or use it there.  Add in is not under "tools" like the internet says but I found "add in"button under Utilities for Design setting. But there is no Netfab to add-in.

 

How do I get Netfab through Fusion 360?

 

thanks.

It would seem that Netfab is a version of Fusion 360 not an add-in to the original Fusion 360 application.  You can read about it at this website.

 

Please also read @g-andresen post.

Thank you. I was able to install the separate installer and now "netfab" shows up in the "add in's" initial window, but from the "help guide" instructions, it says a separate Netfab window is supposed to pop up.

 

I don't see that and it doesn't really look like Netfab is running anywhere in my fusion 360.  The instructions don't make sense because it says you access through "tools" but I don't even see Tools button when in Design mode.  I have to find "add-ins" through Utilities.   Capture.JPG

Hi,

I also saw the page that @jhackney1972  linked, but wanted to point you to the Fusion AppStore. That way you can explore for yourself if there is an option to the "slightly" more expensive version of AD.

I guess I'm okay now because I do get repair options when I click on the "body" file and then there are repair options of the mesh and it worked.  I wonder if that was through Netfab but there is no window that says "netfab" very confusing.
