Schematic & PCB creation

Is there any thought of adding Electronic and PCB fabrication software to the Oshape program?

Fusion 360 has a platform allowing multi discipline Engineers (like myself) to complete 3D modeling as well as electrical PCB design.

I currently switched from Solid works to Onshape and am now looking to convert from Altium PCB design due to cost.

@art_garland_ Today we would like to focus on bringing ECD board data into Onshape but probably not going to be focusing on doing board and PCB design today.  We will be relying on our partners to provide that.  Are you looking to do the actual design not just building the 3D board from an ECAD design package?

Thank you for the reply.

Actual schematic, design & layout. If you have a chance test drive Fusion 360 (30 day free trial) see what they have. I have been using this for the past 20 days and it is working rather well but the 3D modeling and assembly configurations in the mechanical package are lacking. To be expected for $495.

Unfortunately we are not considering 2D tools like this today.  We will be relying on partners to fill this need for the time being. Thank you for the clarification.
