I'm sure whether this is a future consideration or not, but it's still a good idea i believe.
You could import files to fusion app when you're offline and later when you have internet connection it syncs with your account as it is currently.
Right now every time i want to import and modify something i downloaded from here or grabcad i must wait for the upload to complete. This is really a problem with large files and slow connection because it takes so long to upload.
This is really a must have. Not being able to simply load a file / data into a document is already for me border line unacceptable and the current converstion time is way to high for small files already.
Not being able to do this while being offline is even more a no-go for commercial users I can imagine.
Here in Michigan thanks to the lack of proper powerline planings we have many power and internet outages after storms for example.
I'd like to get some clarification on your request.
Do you want to import a file, while offline, into a project so it will upload and create a Fusion item once connectivity is restored?
Or, are you looking to import a file from your desktop to an open Fusion design? right into your modeling window, regardless of ibeing online or offline>
Or is it both?
And to Kevin's question, would you be OK to a limited set of data types that could be supported in an offline import or desktop-to-modeling window workflow?
Well the more file format options we have, the better, actually. Let's say i have a lot of cad files in my computer (different formats) and no internet connection and i want to work on those designs. So i believe it should have the same amount of import options as it actually has right now, but offline.
To gilchrj:
Both. I would like to start a new design, import stuff into that design from my desktop when i'm offline and also import files into a project from my desktop when i'm offline.
You made it very clear to me. Now when i read this information i would be happy with the limited set of offline import methods like you suggested before. And the separate local translators would be great too let's say when a file format is not included in the limited set of import options.
So the most popular (or what is reasonable for you) CAD file formats should importable offline in Fusion and other formats importable via separate translators.
1. allowing you to import CAD neutural files, essentially the same file types that are available in the export menu, to your active modeling document, regardless if you are online or off-line.
2. the ability to put data into your project while off-line and automatically uploading them to your cloud storage once online again.
3. The possibility of adding local transation for other CAD file types, as an add-on or seperate download
As a student in Mexico learning Fusion, It would be GREAT to have as much offline support as possible, perhaps as an optional feature that those with steady, fast internet can opt out of.
Being that here in Mexico internet connection can be unreliable, mostly for home connections, offline support would be a great addition. Its not a problem on a university network, but still when i work with fusion, i will always have a computer, but not always have an internet connection guarantied.
We will support the local import of Sat, Step and IGES and F3d files in the next major update. It will create a new Fusion design and it will be up to you to chose a project to save the file.
Part of the July update. You cna translate SAT STEP and IGES locally now. DXF comming in the next update. Other propritary formats are not part of this plan because Mac translators do not exist for these formats.
I also am curious how to do this. I just downloaded the latest version and there is no option for importing when going offline. I have also been waiting 10 minutes to upload a 1mb file with no progress. This is becoming a waste of time.
@charegb you mention that translators for proprietary formats are not available for macs. since it seems they are available for Windows wouldn't it be possible to supply them separately like @JamieGilchrist mentioned in his third point in page one so that even these proprietary formats could be opened locally on Windows ?
How about SLDPRT and assembly files SLDASM? So many parts in this format is available to make larger assemblies and make design work. I have to design machine and MUST have the ability to import SLDPRT files offline and it seems fusion can't do it:/ What a shame. Are you working on it?
I would like the ability to import models offline and have the project remain offline. We have NDA's with all of our customers that we would be in violation of if we uploaded any customer information. We also work on ITAR parts. As it stands right now Fusion 360 can NOT be used on any ITAR parts.
