Copying Drawings From One Folder To Another Using "Open on the Web"

Can somebody please try the following to see if the same problem occurs?

 

I am copying one folder to another using the Fusion 360 utility "Open on the Web"

 

Drawings do not seem to be copied over. Is this a problem, or am I doing something wrong?

 

Many thanks in advance!

The problem is the copy is just that, a copy of the drawing not new linked versions. So if you copy your 3d design to another folder you do actually get a new independent version but when you copy a drawing it's a copy of the original still linked to the original 3d design not the new copy. 

 

Fusion's ability to copy projects is useless if you have multiple drawing linked to your design. If you have one one assembly and 2d drawing you can download the 2d drawing and it will download as a f3z file containing the 2d drawing, the assembly and any designs used in the assembly. Trouble is if any designs used by the assembly have 2d drawings associated to them there's no way to make a copy and maintain the links. Been complaining about this for years!😞
