Dynamic updating of projected features

Dynamic updating of projected features

In a parametric model, the location of anything that is projected onto shetches is subject to change if the parameters are changed. These projections donĀ“t currently update properly in Fusion, making it hard to make good parametric models. For example if I want to reference a hole in a plate, and the position of the hole is determined by user parameters holeX and holeY, the projected hole in a sketch on the plate should also move when the user changes holeX and holeY.

This should work now, if you have examples that don't, make a post in the support forum and include example designs where it fails. As you're talking about using parameters I guess you have history enabled so have you tried a Compute All from the Modify menu when it fails?

I tried compute all, and I think that worked! Thank you, didnĀ“t know of that button. It really seems like itĀ“s a hack-fix button that shouldnĀ“t really be necessary, but at least it worked:)

It is a hack-fix use in case of emergency and usually it's not needed. I guess there's a tradeoff for performance where they could regen the model more thoroughly but Fusion would be slower all the time just for these occasional problems. If you have a workflow where you run into it a lot you should make a post in the support forum so Autodesk know about it.
