Contact sets bug

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

After the last update in March, Fusion started to behave weird when having Contact sets turned ON. What I mean is that the joints do not work as expected anymore and, sometimes, bugs like the one in my screencast show up. I hadn't noticed this problem before so, maybe it is due to the update.

 

What happened is that after I had turned ON the Contact sets, somehow the pieces moved in that position even if they shouldn't have. Now I cannot move them back, because the Contact sets work properly.

 

If anyone knows why this is happening, please reply to my message. I don't exclude the possibility that I might be doing something wrong.

My recommendation would be to really only use contact sets to determine the proper joint limits and then set the joint limits to the angles determine with the contact set and then delete the contact sets.

Contact sets are very performance hungry and only are good for very simple cases. They should not be used to replace proper joints.

Ok Peter! Now I see what the problem is. Thank you once again!

 

I don't want to bother you too much, but it seems like there is a bug with the offset tool. Every time I pan the view, the lines which were selected become unselected. I will attach a screencast so you can see better. Hope this can be solved somehow.

 

 

 
 
I really appreciate the help you have given me throughout my learning process! You're the best!
