Not getting simple 2.5 axis Cam for "standard" subscription is a real disappointment.

other than that, a great update.

Re: Wire clip curves not included in the composite part and therefore unelectable.

Not especially helpful, but I also appear to be having this issue!

Wire clip curves not included in the composite part and therefore unelectable.

Hi, the curves aren't bundled into the composite part when creating clips using the Cable/Wiring Routing - Custom Features and therefore I can't select it for use in-context assembly.

Any ideas? Thanks Chris

@GregBrown uploaded a more in depth video to his YouTube channel about the sheet metal forming tools. This answers a bunch of questions I had about using them for FPCs. I imagine it will be interesting for a bunch of people.

I'll add my vote to the "Cam for Educational users." I use onshape with my students for 3D printing projects but I'm forced to go to Fusion 360 for CNC router projects.

@S1mon yes you just need to configure the "Form Part Studio" - it behaves like configuring a selection field. Or you can configure a variable and drive it with that which may be easier.

@S1mon

Thank you for your interest in Form feature. We rely on you to let us know if any of your experiments with forms do not work as expected. The design is intended to support customization of shapes. You don't have to specify both added and subtracted bodies, so punches and stiffeners should work ( worked in our testing).

Time format preferences and version graph

I have my OS time format settings on 24 hour format.

Why does this not apply to the version graph?

AM/PM is not commonly used on this continent and this is confusing.

Re: Time format preferences and version graph

This seems like a bug. Can you please report it to support?

Where can we get the list of supported machines for CAM? And can the Carvera CNC be added if it’s not there already. I’m DYING having to do this in Fusion360.
