Hi,
I'm new to Fusion Electronics. I work occupational on my Job with Altium. However I use Fusion 360 at Home for private projects (CNC & 3d-Printing). Now I have a private Electronics project I wanted to use Fusion Electronics for.
I am creating actually some new devices I need. But I have a problem aligning the STEP-models exactly to my footprints. I can use the "Move-arrows" to position the part roughly but I miss the function to align it exactly. e.g. by pick a point in the STEP-File (may be a Pin from the Component) and the corresponding point of the Footprint (Center of a Pad hole).
I tried it by using from the Tool-List [SOLID] => [MODIFY] => [ALIGN]
This did what I wanted. But after aligning two points I am not able to rote the Part anymore. The alignment-popup window allows me only to flip.
Is the another way for exact alignment of the 3d STEP-File to the footprint within my package???
I use move from right click or from icon menu. If the raster is correct(same) it is just x or y shifting about specified value. If I pull it left then I can set by hand offset value, ie 0.031mm. It is quite easy, the only one problem is to select correct the entire body to move,. To make it I hide sketch and now I can easier select entire body and after that I unhide sketch again, and just playing with offset value I can easy "synchronize" pads with 3d package. Same with rotation by mouse or by specified angle value.
Yes, It is fully hand mode, but it is effective. The key is same raster in package and footrpint.
