Hello Team,

 

for generating drill drawing chart in fusion 360 I tried something new and its work partially but I can use this method,

 

in my opened pcb design file I run Ulp drillegend-stack , this ULP was from Eagle 9.6 version I stored it in my pc separately, the drill drawing chart is prepared in different file ,  new file in fusion opened and this drill drawing chart  is generated in this file , 

 

Then I kept grid of two files same one is my pcb file and another the open file with new drill chart,

I seperated drill table , then I copied all the data of drill chart and paste it into my pcb layout design, as I kept grid of two files same , all symbols are copied on their respective location ,

 

that's it.

 

my work for this time  was done, drillegend-stack ULP attached here

 

Thanks 

Anuradha

Hello Team,

 

for drill drawing chart, I tried something and it works,

 

I run drillegend-stack ULP which is from Eagle, in fusion when I run ULP the total drill chart generated in new file 

not on the same pcb design file, Then I kept grid of two files same and copied all data of drill chart and paste in to my pcb deign file , 

as grid is same all locations of drill chart match with all drills on pcb file

 

ULP file attached here

 

Thanks 

Anuradha

Hey @anuradha.bodke,

 

Would it be OK if we shipped this ULP in Fusion to use it while we get the polished drawing solution finished. That still has some time to go and this will be the stop gap solution. Please let me know if that would be OK.

Any news on when this feature will be implemented?

 

Layer 44 in the PCB editor shows the drill symbols already that you need for the drawing, generating a corresponding table of drills can't be THAT hard.

 

I'm here manually creating that table for a PCB house in a rush, and it feels so wrong.

 

Thanks

Hi @gmarsh9TYE6 ,

 

Did you try the above ULP by Anudradha? This will give you the full table you don't have to make it from scratch. It's a bit of a pain but it should solve the immediate need.

I recommend talking to @melisa.kaner , we are actively working on a native implementation of this functionality and she would appreciate your feedback.

Hope all is well.

Good news is that we have introduced the Electronics Drawing in latest May release.

https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/blog/whats-new-may-2025-major-product-update/

Could you please upgrade to latest version and have a try whether it works for you or not?

Hope it helps.

Hi there,

 

Would like to correct myself that in the May release which introduced Electronics Drawing, but not include drill legend diagrams yet. 

Anyway, please feel free to try the new Electronics Drawing and kindly let us know if you have any feedback about it. Thank you so much.

 

Hope you have a great day.

Best regards,

Helen

Hello-

 

Still wondering if there's been any movement on this functionality?!?  I have tried the ULP referenced previously and while it does create the necessary drill legend and table, it's not helpful to me as I need this information to be accessible in the 2D drawing mode.  It would be great if you could implement the same sort of functionality for a drill legend in 2D drawing mode as you have for the layer stackup table/diagram.

 

Thanks

Hi @mt2az , 

 

Thanks so much for posting on the forums! Unfortunately we don't yet support this but this is at the top of our list and has our attention. I'll send you a quick DM and I'm hoping we can jump on a quick call. I want to make sure I understand your requirements here - it would be something we integrate into the drawings workspace as you say

 

Best regards,
