Hi @christopher2KLSVU 

I hope you are doing well! Here are my answers to your questions:

Q1. How to easy move polygon from Layer 1 to Layer 4.

A1: I think you can select the polygon and then change the layers in Inspector Dialog, like:

Q2. How to move crazy polygon shape in one shoot within a layer, how to catch it and move, entire shape?

A2: Sorry that it has a bug issue here so that you can't Press Shift to Move the Whole Polygon now. And the bug will be fixed in the October Release. And I will keep you updated.

Workaround for it: You can Select the Layer the Polygon On from the Selection Filter and choose Polygon Edge in the Selection Filter. Then you can group select the whole Polygon and then try to Move

Q3: how to set, rename Layer 1 as layer 4?

A3: I am not sure the Layer 1 and Layer4 here. If it is the name of the Polygon, then I think you can just use Name command to Rename the Polygon. And if the Layer 1 represents Top Layer, then I think the answer is in A1.

I hope I don't misunderstand your questions here. Please check if the answers can solve your problems, thanks!

Regarding q3. I have multiple polygons for my power tracks on internal layer, and then on another layer I have anologue sense tracks ąnd signals which I want to shield/ separate trough GND plane. Which is missing. So i need to insert one GND plane between two existing layers which is not possie or I add one more and move my polygons to a new created layer and make gnd plane or previous one.Or somehow I redefine layersstack without moving polygons, plus inserting a new gnd layer.

Hi @christopher2KLSVU,

In this situation, you'll have to add a new layer by going through the DRC and adding the layers. Then you can use a ULP like cmd-change-swap-layer.ulp. Which will allow you to move the contents of one layer to another wholesale.

The above would likely be the easiest approach. Now I haven't tried this ULP in Fusion so there is a chance it might throw an error, if it does let me know.

Best Regards,

Hi @christopher2KLSVU 

FYI - We release Fusion 360 V2.0.9142 today.

And for question 2, you can move the whole Polygon by Pressing Shift and Move in the latest build now.

Hope the fix can help your work.

Please let us know if you have any other problems when using Fusion 360. Thanks a lot!
