I am not sure if this is an issue with the Fusion 360 file itself, or maybe I am uploading it incorrectly or doing something wrong. Please see the *poorly* shaded image to better understand what I mean. I simply want to fill in the main portion of the design, leaving the holes in the middle blank so I can use it to clip other designs and images into the same shape. In the attached images below, the strange infill can be seen, along with the heavily distorted edges on the green design. When I use the paint bucket command to fill the design, it distorts the edges (which is important as this is supposed to be a dimensionally accurate drawing). When I imported it into Inkscape, everything seemed fine, but when I went to infill the design, it created lines that are not in the design and filled in in the wrong places. Attached below is a screenshot and the file that contains said sketch. I just started using Inkscape today, and am trying to make a design that requires me to fill a sketch drawing from fusion 360. Compare features and functionality between Fusion 360 for personal use and Fusion 360. Fusion 360 for personal use is a limited free version that includes basic functionality and can be renewed on an annual basis. So for our use cases Sketchup is inferior to Fusion 360 in all.
Fusion 360 for mac software#
For 2d work we create nearly all projects in the free and open source software Inkscape. Then choose the XY plane from the origin representation to start your sketch. Open a new Fusion document and click Sketch to start a new sketch. It is free to students, hobbyists, and more and is available on their website as well as on the Mac App store.
Fusion 360 for mac download#
Download Autodesk's Fusion 360 if you don't already have it. This is fast and dirty, but shows the general workflow. Fusion 360 svg import expects only vector objects, so the image needs to be traced. Inkscape can import and use bitmap images. Then choose the XY plane from the origin representation to start your sketch on.
