Can not create/switch to PCB

I created a new electronics project and added a schematic. Now I want to switch to board design but it says: "Please open or create an electronics design to continue.".
But I have an electronics design. I have the schematics.
It also says below the menus: "Schematic/PCB may get out of sync. Try opening the associated electronics design first."
But I am in the electronics design (schematic).
Note that I only see a schematics file. Not a PCB design file in the project folder. And I see not how to create it.

How to continue?

Hi @mechamania ,

 

I hope you're doing well. Having the schematics is not the same as creating an electronics design. In Fusion you have to go File > New > Electronics Design. Through that Electronics Design you link the schematic and the board in Fusion 360 so you need to make that file first.

 

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

 

Best Regards,
