Blend/flow adding Multi-axis From Curve

Steep and shallow has an awesome feature that really needs to be added to all other multi-axis toolpaths:

From curve=. Then, if we could get blend/flow to do continuous motion around something we would be able to manufacture blades!

I tried for hours the last couple days to manufacture a single propeller blade properly and fusion cant do it. I would be able to if I had a "from Curve" for blend

These tool axis options are from PowerMill.  Steep & Shallow is also from PowerMill.

You should start seeing these same tool axis options appear in future Fusion 360 updates on other strategies, which will be awesome 😍

 

The above image shows standard tool axis options in all tool paths in PowerMill.  This strategy (Constant Z), would be comparable to 3d Contour.

What @ChristopherMarion says is correct, however, it's not going to be a "snap of the fingers" to bring those controls in. There's a lot of groundwork and testing to conduct, it's going to be a bit 🙂
