on the model of the "block", in the right corner where you can see the design you are creating. The "front" view, which to my understanding is the correct view to start the design. The Z access is the vertical line and the X axis is the horizontal line. I have seen that it is not correct. Is there away to fix this to assure when I send to fire control for a cut of the design it successfully transferred

Hi,

 

I would strongly recommend that you do the embedded tutorials in the Fusion Documentation and also some of the

Self-Paced Learning to help you to learn fusion faster and better. They can be found here:

It is also much easier for the forum to help you if you attach your file AND a screenshot of what you want to achieve

and what the problem is. You can create a file to export like this:

Time spent on the tutorials and self paced learning will not be wasted. Also check out the three RULES that are pinned

to the forum for further guidance.

 

The "Front" view of the View Cube should be the Front of your model but only so you don't

get confused. It is possible to reset the view to be different to what is shown on the View cube.

Look up View Cube in the documentation and it will tell you how to re-orientate.

 

Cheers

 

Andrew

Can I assume that "CUT" you are refering to CNC machining, Plasma cutting, laser etc?

 

If so, you set the WCS for each job, the orientation of the model workspace doesn't matter.

 

There is a bit more information on the link below:

Two tips:

1. You can use the Windows commands Shift Win S and Ctrl v to screen capture and paste an image (rather than the low resolution of your phone (see my example next).

2. You can set Top or Front to be whatever orientation of the XYZ coordinates that you want.

Set how you want and the right click on the View Cube.
