May 2024 Update - Community Reported Bug Fixes (Design)

[seth.madore]

Hello again to the Fusion Design Community! 

We greatly appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to notify us of the issues that you find in Fusion, and we would like to show that appreciation! 

In an ongoing effort to increase our transparency as well as our communication with you, we're continuing with our initiative of calling out all the Forum Reported bug fixes that are included in each update. The list below comprises all the issues that have been raised by our engaged community. So, without further ado, here is what we're going to see in the May 2024 update (creator of forum thread and the thread itself, in no particular order):

DESIGN

@wmhazzard	Boundary Fill should highlight properly
@TrippyLighting	Instance counter should do a better job updating with Rigid Groups

Just as in the March Update, this isn’t to suggest that those are the only fixes that we've included. The list above are the issues specific to the Design Forums; within this update our team has additionally found and closed 150+ different bugs.

Still haven’t seen your issue on the list and wondering if/when it's going to get fixed? Don't hesitate to "bump" the original thread that you created, and I'll be happy to chase down the status of your issue!

Thanks for contributing to what makes the software truly great!

It would be really awesome if fusion didn't freeze when you tried to drag a surface too far or enter a fillet radius that it cant compute. Why does it just lock up?

It makes the geometric modeling kernel go into overdrive, trying to find a solution that satisfies the inputs.
