Interesting display pyrotechnics

An example of some interesting visual effects I was able to achieve by drawing a sketch line which inadvertently or magically extended vastly into the distance. When I deleted the line my display went wonky. I also noticed when I zoomed way out that there were very large numbers showing. Exiting the sketch din’t help.  After a restart of Fusion all was well. Presented for information only.

Ron,

 

Nice to hear from you. Thanks for posting this.

 

We are aware of this and I can add your case to the bug report. The problem is when a design is severely "out of proportion" in one axis, i.e. a line extended far beyond the envelope of the body. Fusion 360 is struggling to display all the information and not doing very well at it.

 

You can see in the image below that size doesn't really matter much in Fusion, it's really proportion that causes this defect. The circle below is 1 km in diameter, 67.5 m tall. All the numbers and UI elements are scaling just fine.

Update: this may be fixed in development. I'm not able to reproduce it easily right now. If you have a file showing this, export it and email to me prior to fixing it.

Phil,

Deleting the line and restarting Fusion cleared the issue, good to know it’s being fixed.
