Good video explaining the nuances of the press/pull. I feel like many users use it without understanding what it actually does. Wrong use of the command often leads to loss of design intent.
@@MechanicalAdvantage Actually I need to schedule a session. Have a few questions about how to increase my productivity that I believe you will be able to help me.
Thank you for a clear and concise explanation..so many of the other tutorials out there have way to much fluff and border on infomercials including the ones from fusion
Another Amazon video from the master. Hey Kev, I also tend to use press pull when direct model editing like working on a non native Fusion360 model. Cheers 🍻
I don’t see it in preferences. I’ll keep looking and maybe someone else will know where to turn it off and can comment. Or maybe it’s time to embrace it and see if it can speed you up? :)
Yes! If you change your navigation mode to "Tinker CAD", the squiggly line no longer appears and it will rotate the camera instead when you right-click. Hope that's what you are looking for :)
Good video, as always; sure it will be helpful for some folks:) As for my part, I encountered gestures decades ago (doing 3D ~30yrs, since 3D Studio DOS!), but have found hotkeys to be best for my workflow (personal choice, I suppose). That said, RClick/context-sensitive menus are good for seeing what's relevant for given situation, though here again, I generally don't use this - though perhaps of more value to one who is new to the app. So, not being contrarian for its sake, just expressing my take on things. P.S. Thx for the "tip" on 'New Faces' vs. 'Automatic' for 'PushPull>OffsetFaces' - which BTW, though this brings up the 'OffsetFaces' dialog, the standard way (directly selecting 'OffsetFaces') does not have the 'Offset Type' option. So, an interesting difference. Anyhow, keep up the great content...
Is it because I'm a CAD dinosaur that I really dislike the gesture based menus? On the other hand, it is nice to see Fusion catching up with AutoCAD of any moons ago with the context sensitive right click menu ... ;-)
YES! I'm telling you, when I embraced the marking menu in Inventor instead of shutting it off I could absolutely fly after about a week. I had super experienced coworkers asking me how the heck I was firing off commands without pushing any buttons. (They had chosen to shut off the marking menu by the way.) AutoCAD still has its place, just not in mechanical design in my opinion.
The inability to reference driven dimensions forced me to give up Fusion and revert to Inventor, I may reconsider Fusion once Autodesk rectifies this glaring omission, if ever.

Hey There. Yeah, I get asked about this all the time. As you know I didn't cover all the subtle differences, but I think it hit the high points.
Kevin, I really appreciate how you go to clarify things that many people just muddle through!
Wow that’s really nice of you to say. I’m glad it was helpful.
Always learning something new from you Kevin. Keep up the great work!
Hi Marcelo. Do you have my winter training session scheduled yet? Can we do October to April? haha Glad you liked this one.

Well, to be fair, Autodesk is in it to make money. I try to get to the point in these as quickly as I can.

That is a good use for it too. Thanks for always stopping by Aaron.
Thank you again for bringing me back to the right way, or faster way, of doing things.

Great advise once again Kevin, Thank you sir
Hello, Kevin. I have a project and I've been trying to press down a shape from my object, but it's not working. Please help me.
The marking menu- and gesturing, doesnt get the attension it deserves! Thanks!
It needs some adjusting and the ability to customize it. But I know there is a huge list of wants already. Thanks Mickey.
Thanks for explaining that squiggly line! Any way to disable it? Or have it rotate the camera instead?

@@JustInTime0525 That worked! Thanks a million.
Sorry M.A. I'll try it again someday when I know what I'm doing, promise. Cheers guys.
@@JustInTime0525 Thank you! This works better for me.

Hi Joe. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you. This helps a lot.
Great that helps a lot!
Hi Gillis. Thanks for letting me know.
I get it now! Thanks
I'm glad to hear it. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks Kevin!
You are welcome. Thanks for stopping by.
@@MechanicalAdvantage Always!
Thanks for sharing!
Hey Craig. Thanks for watching the video.

I had super experienced coworkers asking me how the heck I was firing off commands without pushing any buttons. (They had chosen to shut off the marking menu by the way.) AutoCAD still has its place, just not in mechanical design in my opinion.
Tried finishing the sketch by going down and back up without success.
The inability to reference driven dimensions forced me to give up Fusion and revert to Inventor, I may reconsider Fusion once Autodesk rectifies this glaring omission, if ever.
That's a little dramatic, don't you think? It's on the road map.
