3MF color support broken

With the latest Fusion revision, Fusion is no longer saving color to 3MF meshes for me. This seems... really bad? I tried saving both the individual body and the component as 3MF, and neither method worked — just getting white surfaces in the exported file.

 

Anyone else have this issue or know what's going on?

I have a similar issue, some components on my PCB (including the PCB itself) just appear grey when exporting to .3mf, some components have the color they are supposed to have. Now that you say it, the problem only occured after installing the latest update.
I would really appreciate any help on this problem as well.

Hi, I am not able to reproduce it using build 15775. Could you please provide more details like:

1. Build version

2. Which dialog did you open to export 3mf ( "save as mesh", "3d print", "File -> Export" or "3mf scene export")

Thanks in advance.

Build version is the latest: (2.0.15775 x86_64)

The process I had been using was to click on the body or component in the lefthand panel, right click, and choose "Save as Mesh". I also just tried File→Export, and I tried File→3D Print, and they both resulted in the same problem.

 

I opened a ticket about this issue with Autodesk tech support a few days ago, and they were able to replicate it. The defect number is FUS-127101.

We found an regression regarding the color export of appearances of BBRep bodies. FUS-127101 is confirmed and will track the progress.

This also just started happening to me for 3mf files. OBJ files save with colors properly.
It's been a while since I had to use colors on my 3mf files but it did work previously.

I'm now on v.2.0.16490.

I used both methods of saving (right click and save as, 3D print/Export button)
