Hi @autodeskB5RMD , 

 

Thanks for posting! The make menu is still here..

Can you try resetting your toolbar? If that doesn't work, please reinstall Fusion 360

Yep, that's what my toolbar looked like up until today, but now I have "Design" workspace instead of "Model" workspace and no Make menu. Trying to reset the toolbars does nothing.

 

This is what my toolbar looks like

Hi @autodeskB5RMD , 

 

Thanks for the screenshot! It looks like this is happening because you are have "UI Preview" enabled, which changes the default UI and the toolbars. To change it back, click on your name in the upper right hand corner, click preferences, and uncheck and box next to UI preview on the preview tab.

Thanks for that. Iknow what happened now. I installed Fusion360 on a new laptop not realising the settings are for the account rather than the machine, so when I checked UI Preview on the laptop, it changed the settings on my desktop machine too.

Thanks for you help

So there's no Make Menu in the new UI?   What are we doing to do when that becomes the only option?

@michael55SE4 It's the first item in the "Tools" tab, in the "Design" workspace. New UI takes some getting used to, but so far I haven't seen any functionality go missing...

@julia.paganucci is there an update to this issue? 

I have no UI Preview selection in Preview Preferences, and no Make menu. 


And Makerbot plugin is running according to F360 add-ins dialog, but doesn't present in the UI as expected (I'm guessing these are all related).

Sorry, I found it!  This support page helped me understand where everything now is, including Make icon, and the missing Makerbot add-in UI!

I found a menu item under the "File" menu called "3D Print"  it appears to have the same options as the old "Make" menu.
