How to edit a project's description?

Hello all:

 

... there's some old questions on this from back in 2015 and 2016, which I've tried, but I'm still looking at all these "New Project" descriptions in the Fusion Data Panel.

  Q: How do edit the project descriptions?

 

Thanks again, C

@SaeedHamza Its name as a description of what it is like if it was a bookshelf and the body was a shelf you would call the body a shelf this describes what it is in one word.

Hi Daniel:

... thanks for the reply -- but, nope.

 

(Where exactly are you "long clicking"?)

Cheers, C

... in the data panel, below the project name -- see the attached snap, "New Project" = description.

Go and click on your name in the Data Panel to open A360, then open the project you want to change its discerption

You will see something like the attached picture appearing on the right of the screen that contains information about the project

Double-click the project name and change it

 

Regards

Hi Saeed:

... Thanks for the reply.

  Unfortunately, you're changing the project name, not the description.

Cheers, C

do you wont a project's name changed

 

do you wont parts of a model's elements name changed like the sketch, body and work plane.

 

Do you wont to know how to set the model's properties by what its made from

 

Do you wont to know how to set the model's properties as in the pick below what you get to by right clicking on a component or the top node/top of tree and selecting properties.

Hello Daniel and Saeed:

... Yes, I am trying to change the *project* description -- as shown in the data panel ... (not the other things listed above, which are part of a design itself).

As far as I know you cant change a master project file description in the data panel yet, only when you first do it.
