In this product update, we've made 72 improvements and fixes based on your forum posts, direct messages, and interactions with our support team. Here is a summary of what we fixed in this update.

General

  • Crash when opening and closing a specific design and then closing Fusion 360.
  • Save As STL with One File Per Body option produced double STL exported files.

Modeling

  • Sweep created faces with duplicated tags.
  • Crash without CERs when Fillet option was selected.
  • Crash without CERs after clicking OK on Extrude or Revolve.
  • Revolve preview was different from actual result.
  • Revolve about an axis that is not in the sketch plane incorrectly projected to the plane.
  • Selecting multiple edges to create a flange doesn't create it on all the edges.
  • [Windows Only] Alt key did not work properly when using Edit Form tool.
  • Unable to create patch on a specific design.
  • Adjusting a pattern failed due to a hole being out-of-date.
  • model crashed while computing Pattern on Path.
  • Align command performing slow on certain designs.
  • Going from Direct Modeling to Parametric Modeling converted very slow with a model has large number of occurrences.
  • When direct-editing a mesh body in Mesh environment, the viewports incorrectly disappeared.
  • Look-At for joint origin did not respond to adjustments to the coordinate system.
  • Joint preview was correct, but component flipped incorrectly when clicking OK to commit the action.
  • Edit joint takes longer than expected to launch its command dialog.

 

Sketching

  • When a sketch was edited, Fusion 360 was slow at computing all the features and finish the sketch.
  • Arc flipping on arc tangent to spline and its offset.
  • Sketch flipping on parameter change.
  • Crash when dimensioning a spline.

Electronics

  • Unable to open a specific schematic file.
  • Push to 3D PCB was missing a section of copper.

Simulation

  • Failed static stress analysis on a specific file.
  • Fusion 360 incorrectly rounded up strain values when exported Nonlinear Plastic Plot in CSV and XML.
  • Pre-check was inaccurate when bodies were replaced by Point Mass (Auto).

Drawing

  • Drawing resolution was poor on macOS machines.

API

  • Not being able to create a particular ruled surface when using the API.
  • Problem with custom graphics text and positioning relative to the view.

Manufacture

  • Not all strategies and setups were listed after Fusion 360 July 2022 update.
  • Square insert groove tools: show "use opposite edge" parameter for "tip center" compensation point.
  • Rest machining profile roughing gave an unexpected error.
  • Unusual gaps in Steep and Shallow where found when using Avoid surfaces.
  • Ramp toolpath and Tapered Endmill resulted in a CAM Simulation crash.
  • Machine Simulation did not simulate the full toolpath.
  • Engrave toolpath incorrectly cut straight through the model – now there is a warning before it happens.
  • Random lines form in the infill, crossing already printed lines in Additive manufacturing.
  • Heights did not respected entered parameters in Drill operation.
  • Ramps containing wrong small piece caused a big arc in toolpath preview.
  • 3D Morph Spiral did not respect "Additional Offset" around full perimeter of part.
  • Swarf ignored the model and cut right through it.
  • Corner clearing cut in engraving was wrong.
  • Fusion created wrong toolpath on '2D Pocket' for a specific model with a specific set of configurations.
  • (Windows only) "Unable to export library" when exporting a tool library in csv format to folders with non-ascii characters from Fusion 360.
  • Crash on editing a particular NC Program.
  • Added "don't show this again" checkbox for "different tool has same tool number" prompt.
  • NC Program: Post properties got unexpectedly reset.

Is this the new simulation control bar or is this one broken?

Now Steep and Shallow cut while using touch surfaces cascades over edges cutting in areas not selected.

With the latest update this week it crashed on the restart when I clicked on the 'whats new' link. Restarted it again, and it LOST all of my menu customizations and settings, both what was pinned to the menus and also all my preference choices. Had to redo them all - a real waste of time. After that, it crashed several more times for no apparent reason. This is on Windows 10, paid version.
