Offset curve not respected in CAM

[warpcat]

First off, pretty new to F360, but I know my way around cg software in general.

I've been trying to do some v-Carving\engraving, and have done some successful cuts.  But I've hit this problem and it's driving me bonkers:

I import an SVG to use in my v-carving, and when i import it, it comes in as a dark green outline, solid blue infill.  F360 likes it.  Cuts it.

But I'd like to offset that curve, to do another cut around it at a fixed distance:  I select the curve, use the Sketch->  Offset tool:  Offset as needed, and accept.

The new, offset curve is a light green and has a bunch of control points all around it.  The original curve looks quite different.  F360 doesn't highlight the inside like normal when I mouse over it, like the other curve.  Nor does the space between them hilight, like it would had I done this operation on say, a circle.

Back in CAM, the new curve isn't respected:  I can't pick it for any of my tooling operations.

I've attached the file showing this.  What am I doing wrong?  This seems like such a simple operation, I'm not grasping why it's suddenly a roadblock.

Thanks

Hi @warpcat

Thanks for posting! The issue you are experiencing with Fusion not recognizing the closed contour from the offset line is a known issue that has been logged with our development team as FUS-25947. We are working to address this issue and I will keep this thread updated as I have more information to share.

In the meantime, there is a reliable workaround that should allow you to close the contour for use in the CAM workspace. I have shown and explained this in the screencast below - please let me know if you have any questions!

Crazy hack, but it completely worked.  Thanks for the fix.  Look forward to the issue being addressed for real 🙂
