Creating new components / create new device

bkeeneNEC7T · ‎09-01-2023

Hello,

I'm trying to follow the Youtube series from Autodesk "Create your own electronics parts in Fusion 360", it seems it's from a couple of years ago so something may have changed since then, but the fifth video in the series is "Making a Device" where he says to go up and select "Create New Device"; I do not have that in my Fusion. I do however have a "Create New Component". Are these the same? I've having some issues creating a new LED, and I just want to be sure these two are equivalent. Thanks!

Hi @bkeeneNEC7T

Component == Device, that's a recent UX change that is just a name change. They are the same

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