Probing in fusion (Y Axis web)

I havent seen an option for probing a web in the y, or x axis.. or i guess they have option for a y axis web but in a pocket.. if i select the top face of my part it will do all 4 edges, can i edit it, to just probe the y axis?

Select the faces in the Y axis that you want to probe. If they are rectangular and of the same size, Fusion will automatically assign a Y axis probe to them

so...

That's because your selected face is not a rectangle, and nothing but a rectangle. It's a flaw in the probing logic. For it to work on your part, you could use "Split Face" to create a rectangle surface, or just sketch a rectangle and turn it into a Patch.

Yes, it's half-baked....
