Thanks! Fixed it.

Please see the pinned comment about the Fusion update that affected this 😎

Thanks for the note! I've added a pin comment to call this out. 'Ground to Parent' was released in the May Fusion update. At 3:03 you will want to select "Pin" (formerally "Ground").

Chocolate 3D printer? 😁

True. You got this!! 💪🏼

Good question. Those are not explained in much detail in this course. 🙂

@@ProductDesignOnline no worries, I'll search them up on my own before proceeding

Hmm. Any chance you could link to a screenshot? You could also try reorienting the sketch with the ViewCube in the upper right corner to see if that moves the degree input out of the way.

@@ProductDesignOnline Should be interesting. I'd be tempted to try PVB to smooth my lair lines after. Nice to see quick simple tutorials btw, great for people starting modeling in fusion. I was an idiot before shell. I would manually sketch surfaces and remove material with the extrude command.

A (cheap) SLA printer would be ideal if you want to make a bunch of these. :) Glad you're enjoying them!

@@ProductDesignOnline I have an old mars 3. I just have so many more FDM printers that I forget resin exists more than I should.

Thanks for calling this out. I'm not sure why, will have to investigate :)

The 'red' sounds like the Extrude command defaulted to a 'cut' operation. Double-check that the operation in the Extrude dialog is set to "New Body". Let me know if that works! :)

@@ProductDesignOnline thanks for the quick reply! I definitely confirmed that it was set to New Body. I eventually just tried sketching a circle and extruding it and that worked. The first and the final cylinder made in the video had no issues, so I'm not sure why I wasn't able to do it with the middle one! At some point I'll try again with a fresh file.

@@cassiakuhn8740glad you were able to work past it! If you do run into it again, please capture a screen recording or screenshots if you can. Happy learning! 🙂

You are so welcome!

Are you referring to the creating of the mirror? Make sure you project the geometry before trying to sketch that centerline. Otherwise, it won't have an edge to reference and won't find the midpoint constraint.

Depends on what you intend to make. In general, parts getting milled tend to be better suited for a parametric modeling program. However, if you plan to make characters or other more organic designs then Blender would be great!

Can you share a link to a screenshot or screen recording?

@@ProductDesignOnline for some reason i am unable to post the link. Trying to post a basic comment now, if success full I will try to proceed to post the link.

it seems it get's censored for some reason. this is the video code, please insert it into the URL manually. Thank you in advance! SHHi2zSqF1Y

Use 'Axes' which is the same thing. They recently renamed it.

Blue (undefined) lines can still be moved around which means that they may get moved unwillingly when you change dimensions. The goal is to fully define sketches so you can update things predictably. This is covered specifically on Day 16, in greater detail.

@@ProductDesignOnline thankyou so much

@@harshilpanchal2229 You're welcome! Happy learning :)

I discuss it more throughout the course. In short, it helps you reference existing geometry, making the model adaptable should you change dimensions later.

What does Adobe have to do with this?

@@ProductDesignOnline I guess because it starts with the letter A just like Autodesk does. Some people can't discern the difference.

No, cloud storage is included with all licenses, including the free Personal Use license.

@@ProductDesignOnline I can't create any folders or move existing folders is this normal?

@@pogarda001 No, something doesn't sound right. It sounds like a permissions or account issue. Does your account say in trial mode or 'expired' ?

@@ProductDesignOnline It looks like it took longer than 24 hours to switch from trial to non-commercial user. It’s working in the browser and the program now. I have another question. I’m using SolidWorks at work, and I can get SolidWorks to calculate the forces required for fixing bolts based on applied loads. Do you know if Fusion can do this? I sent an email to Autodesk support, but their reply was very vague and told me to find the answer on Google. Funny or not, I was hoping to buy a license, but if this is the level of support you get from Autodesk, I’m happy to stay on non-commercial software

I think I figured it out although I cannot do the offset

This one is hard to say without seeing your file. Can you export your Fusion file and share a link to it?

​@@ProductDesignOnline I figured it out! At least I think lol I didn't have any errors in the end but it took me a while. Thanks!

I don't believe so, unfortunately. There are some add-ins that helps with 3D printed threads though.

It will depend on the mesh file, but if it's fully closed (no holes or errors) then it can be used!

@@ProductDesignOnline thanks for reply!!!!!

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. Glad to hear you learned a lot :)

Keep going - you got this! :)

Collinear constraint selection order: The first line or edge you select will remain fixed in its current position. The second line or edge will be adjusted to become collinear with the first selection. This means that the second line will move and rotate to align perfectly with the first line. For Midpoint, you (typically) first select the point or entity that you want to move. The second selection is the line or entity that will have the point constrained to its midpoint. The surrounding constraints can 'override' some of this behavior, which is why at times it can feel like it's behaving differently.

Thanks for the feedback! These workflows all still work, they've just moved many of the things around. I'll have to make a new video :)

nvm i figured it out!

Glad to hear that! 👏🏼😎

Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching :)

Double check two things. First, make sure your very top line has a horizontal constrain in the sketch. If that top surface is not planar (flat) then you won't be able to select it for Shell. Second, you may need to adjust the top spline handle in the sketch, making the curve of the spline larger. If it's too 'sharp' then it won't have enough area for the Shell to follow the curve.

@@ProductDesignOnlineI don’t remember how I got it to work but it went through. Will make it again soon just so I know it. You also talked about the error message, but not how to fix that. I had that issue at first though after doing it a second time it resolved itself.

@@Nmyoutube821 See 11:37, "Edit your sketch and adjust the stem of your bottle..."

nvm, figured it out my own way :D lol

not a dumb question. Yes, you print the box as a single print with both lids flat on the build plate.

What was the file/design? Did you try merging or adjusting facegroups at all?

There is likely another constraint that was automatically applied. Double-check that you don't have any other constraints that would restrict it from making the sides equal in length. If you can share your file, I can take a look.
