Moderation policy: Light, mostly invisible
The tutorials for F360 are numerous, and some very good, you just have to find one that supports the current build. I still struggle with the invisible auto constraints it inexplicably adds and the apparent inability to modify constraint hierarchy (I had a couple thousand hours of Pro/E back in the day), and I throw things when they don’t have all the mathematical ways to create construction objects. Aside from that it’s a good tool as long as you’re working with solid objects and not meshes.
Yea that is the one thing I noticed. Trying to work with a mesh was damn near impossible for me. Makes it annoying if i'm trying to modify an existing .stl. Still haven't really worked out how to do that but one of these days i'll get it.
