How to install the Keyshot (5.1) plugin on a mac?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Just registered as a new Fusion 360 user. Currently as a start-up just to see what the benifits are for me. I am an owner of Keyshot 5.1 for mac and tried to install the plugin, but it didn't work. First downloaded the package and ran the installation, but no Keyshot buttons do appear in Fusion. I followed all the steps in the readme file, but nothing seems to work. The main problem is I can't find the location of the scripts. Anyone else with this problem? Please help

If you click on File / Addins do you see the KeySHotExport plugin there?  Maybe it is just not enabled?

I don't see the plugin and don't know where to look for it. .PKG file says it has installed correctly, but I have no idea where to files are located.

If everything goes well, the Keyshot installer will put the plug-in at:

  ~/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/MyScripts/ManuallyInstalled

You can also access installation folder by clicking "MyScripts Folder" in the Fusion's Autorun scripts dialog shown in your screenshot (and then go to ManuallyInstalled sub folder).

For example, the attached screenshot (KeyShotPluginLocation.png) shows the sample KeyShot installation. Please let me know if you have any discoveries.

I uninstalled fusion 360 and then reinstalled it from the fusion 360 website. Then installed the plugin and everything works fine. It seems that if you install from the appstore, the installation folder is at a different place and the plugin doesn't install correctly (in my case). Problem solved.

Hi, I already installed the Keyshot 2.2 and sured it was enabled in the autorun script, but I didn't see the Keyshot interface in the Insert menu. Where should it be?  Thanks!
