OK, I've right clicked on EVERYTHING I can think of, clicked on everything I can think of... I originally created the stock as a 2" square, however, I'm now using a 2.5" round stock.... from what I can tell, you change it by deleting the project and starting over...
Obvious locations: Actions/Edit Stock
Setup/Edit Stock
Milling/Setup/Edit Stock
Right click on project, Edit Stock
Setups/Edit Stock
Models/Edit Stock
Specific model below that/Edit Stock
Right click on the screen... Edit Stock??
Tried clicking on WCS (What Crazy Stupid Acronym?)
Utilities Menu... Actions.... Edit Stock? OK, Wait! There is a Automatic Stock Generation! Score! It will Automatically generate a stock that is round, like the thing I'm milling, and at least as large... Ah, Shucks, no that is something else..
Ah, Manage/Edit Stock??
Also tried double clicking About every one of those and right clicking them...
I also opened EVERY icon along the bottom, EVERY menu item across the top,
Tried right clicking on the 'Face' operation... Edit stock please???
If I simulate, I get a green and white square in the middle of the page that I guess is supposed to be the Stock...
As is typical of Fusion 360, I've been cussing a the computer trying to figure out WTF they hid the dang option, that you would CLEARLY need, and I really don't want to delete the entire project (or at least, the manufacture part of it) and start OVER?
Are the programmers who created the UI just stupid, or are they mean? How on earth could you expect to know that you should hit Ctrl/Alt/Left Shift/Num Lock and double Right click on the model to bring up the Edit Stock? (Or whatever the magic spell is to bring it up?)
And I still need to fix the line that I drew, and spent 45 minutes trying to get it to draw correctly, needed a simple arc - that I could have done in Corel Draw version 4, back in 2005 in 1 minute or less... and the stupid thing looked right, but now it is broken again... Fastest way to edit in Fusion 360? If you want to scale, export drawing to DWG, Import in Corel Draw, edit it, and export it back... (No kidding, I actually spent 4 hours trying to draw a simple logo, and then exported it all screwed up (apparently Fusion 360 can't export things with the points being connected, so I had a bunch of unconnected lines I had to reconnect), deleted the imported drawing, and drew the whole thing from scratch in 5 minutes in CorelDraw X4 (Vintage 2006 product)... And ran that on my Laser...
Anyway, how do you change your stock? I can see that happening OFTEN if you have 10 blocks that are all different sizes and maybe you drew it for one of them and found another one that was larger..
