Fusion 360 website & Joint editing

[Anonymous]

I have two issues at the moment...

1) The Fusion 360 "Community" page on the website has never displayed properly, which prevents me from getting to the forum. In fact, I usually resort to using Google to find the forum since the web page is mostly obscured by a large blue bar. I have zoomed in and out, but the bar remains in the way of all clickable options. Unless there are no options on this page? In that case, how do I get to the forum from the time I sign in???

2) I have successfully created joints using the Assemble > Joint commands, which was incredibly difficult for some reason. I imported my Rhino file so I'm guessing this may be the cause. After an hour of frustration with all of my components being "grounded", I finally discovered a way to unground them. I should note that they were never grounded using the option to ground, this was never selected and to be sure, I imported them three different times. I resorted to converting them somehow, but since there is no history of my clicks I cannot find out exactly what I did.

So now I used the Joint command, but didn't get things aligned correctly. I want to adjust the joints, but this is not an editable function for some reason. Do I start over? I can't get the parts unjoined so I'm guessing Fusion wants me to start a new file? I tried the Joint command again and the error states it is already joined.

I watched several videos on this topic and none of them address these problems. I would much appreciate any insight.

Hey Jason - re: the community hub not rendering properly, would it be possible to get a screenshot?  Also, what browser (and version) are you using?

Thanks,

This is how it looks unless I zoom out as far as possible.

Hi Jason,

Sorry to hear your having issues with joints.  Since it sounds like you have a couple different issues with joints would you be able record a video with the issues you are seeing, as well as share the file in question?  You could either upload it to the forums or email me directly.  This way I can understand exactly what you are trying to do and can hopefully offer some advice or recommendations on how best to approach things.

Cheers,

Thanks, Jason - what version of Firefox are you running?

@Anonymous , regarding your assemble > joint questions, let's help you out over a skype/google hangout session. Shoot me an email at keqing.song@autodesk.com and we can set up a time and go from there.

The problem is that the parts are permanently grounded even though I have not selected to ground them. My guess is that Fusion is not really designed to import files as importing files always causes multiple problems.
