In my case, a “Framing Overview” to go with the design and save it. Maybe there was a workaround for “multiple drawings” after all? I would have to watch the number of editable documents, but Fusion 360 would warn me if there were a problem, and it was a small price to pay to get “live” or at least updatable versions of all my drawings again!Ĭreate > Derive was my “ new best friend.” The workflow went something like this: I can’t remember what I was creating when I returned, but I stumbled on Create > Derive and Insert > Derive for the first time and had the makings of an idea. All I had left was the design, the first drawing, and (luckily) paper copies of the other six.ĭisgruntled, I “walked away” from Fusion 360 for a while.
Suddenly, everything I was working towards had gone. Unfortunately, the licensing rules had changed by then, and I said goodbye to all but one of my seven drawings…
I was happy with my efforts and later decided to play a little more, making some minor changes to the design. I finally ended up with a design I was satisfied with and seven sheets of drawings. I was getting quite proficient with Fusion 360 and could produce working drawings and (eventually) a BOM (bill of materials), outshone the occasional difficulties I had with the model. Designing the new wooden building wasn’t too hard.
