From illustrator I always use the scale factor 1/72 and that gets me to the original size.
My two cents, if you are going to go the route of making a body from the svg, save yourself some time, position it where you want it and then do a combine cut onto your target body. Probably faster than a project and press pull.
quick question after you made the solid body why not just use the body to cut the image out using the combine feature as a cut rather than having to project all the geometry and reselect them 1 at a time.
Thanks for the great tip! "Toggle/Untoggle the imported SVG to move it"...that's what i was searching for.
OMG, thanks for the video. I gave up doing a logo / SVG engraving. It shouldn't be this cumbersome...
Thank you for this video. I'm completely new to 3d modeling, and Fusion 360 was continuously crashing with my svg file. I figured it was too big/complex, but even moving it would crash. Your tip is great...don't move it ! Edit it down in place to reduce the complexity and then convert it to a solid. Thank you for your easy to understand, short, and to the point video !
2020 and the phrase "you wouldn't know this" still comes up regularly when talking about Fusion 360. The interface is still a nightmare.
Very helpful! Thank you
Once you moved the "solid" SVG model over your block you could have then extruded into your block then done the Combine option and chose to cut the model. Would have saved you from having to click all those little letters 3 times. ;)
Amazing tutorials, many thanks! I've noticed in a few videos, you've sketched something and held a shortcut key to select only the sections you want to extrude while dragging the cursor over them (and not clicking each individually). What is the shortcut you are using?
I use Inkscape to create complex SVGs to use in F360, I import them using a 0.2822341 scale factor to get them to the right size.
+James Lamb you can do the same thing with Autocad360 what is free to Fusion user's
I know you probably won't see this, but I just want to thank you for posting this and saving me hours of frustration. I'm clicking that subscribe button RIGHT NOW
really appreciate the fusion 360 videos, i just started using fusion myself.
Is there a way to scale an SVG in an X/Y value? Coming up with the right scale factor to match the size I had originally designed it, is like pulling teeth. >.
I know this is 4 years old but what you could do is start a sketch, make the box the dimensions you want your svg to be. Import the svg and then scale it up to the size of the box. That should give you the correct size you are wanting. Delete the box after and job done.
@@boyracer1988 thank you so much for that idea
quick google search and bam, your video solves ma problems😊
If after selecting all of your parts of the SVG (letters, logo, etc) and create a "selection set", can you then use that selection set when working in another component? If so, this would save you a ton of time from having to reselect everything more than once. I haven't used selection sets all that much myself but I know they are in there.
You made it look easy John, but what a pain in the ... !
Dude you are amazing
Thank you! the SVG sketches being automatically fixed was killing me. saved my bacon, thanks!!
Too the point, short, detailed. Excellent video.
Thank you for this. It solved a big problem I was having!
Great video, helped a lot, thank you
I think I might be at least 30th time watching it.
Super!
To add the SVG like that will help a lot, and also to fix it so that it is closed, I haven't seen before.
Is it possible to add an SVG to a curved surface, like on a cylinder wall?
Hey, I know this is old, but it was just what I needed to finish a project. Thanks!
2:20 You say you have it where you want it. But how do you specify the logo's position numerically? Relative to the edges of the block, for example?
Very useful thanks, and good pace on the tutorial.
Thanks bung ... (indonesian for broo...) it's so helpful to me
Thank you for the tutorial, easy to follow, very helpful!
Hi. Still did not get how you fixed the inverted svg file after you import it
Good tips. When you import an stl to the Hobby version of F360, then import a svg label and do the extrude, I'm not getting the extruded label to combine with the base component. I've tried every which way to get it to work. Just hit my editable limit, and may have overloaded the Autodesk server, with so many redos. Been there done that, before. Edit: Figured part of it out . Have sketches that are floaties. Thinking maybe that construction is for placeholder type sketches.
Hi John,
Great videos...very helpful. On another text topic, how do you get text for follow a curved edge? I'm sure this is an easy thing to do. Thanks again.
Jeff
Nice tipzz and trickzz !!
you are awesome, you resolve my issue with the green line.
Fixed! My logo was fixed! Thank you.
Amazing video. Thank you
Thank you very much for this Tutorial. I couldnt even manage to move the .SVG file after inserting it, and the Logo as DXF file (converted to DXF with Inkscape) was not working properly. Great job, great videos :) Best regards !
Awesome
I just tried to import a Celtic knot frame border and Fusion basically had a stroke and keeled over.
Thanks for this. But OMG this is 8 million times easier in Tinkercad.
Thank you for this!
You can select the entire sketch within a CAM operation though. You don't HAVE to model it.
I’m so happy I found you!!!
I have many questions :
Why when I import my svg files after I’m extruding here a bit and there, I get often many lines that are like fantoms and if I ignore them and print my woe ...my prints become a mess
.... how can I send you a pic like this I really hope you can help me
Thanks
Lemzati
Awesome! Will this work with STEP files? Or only svg
+clonetrooperx39 Create a new drawing based on a STEP file and manipulate it any way you want.
ty! fast and correct vid.
THX !
excellent, I will be appreciated if you make video about exterior and interior decoration vectors for doors.
Thanks a lot
Thank you!
I'm still very, very new at this, but would there be some way to inset the logo once you've turned it into a solid into the part, then cut the part and then just delete the logo from it? That assumes you made the logo thickness the same as the depth on the part.
Edit: Reading the comments I see that you can. Cool.
Can you *center* the SVG on your block?
excellent video. But whenever I create a new component, my extruded part becomes like greyed out. and I cant select its plane for adding the svg file on it
Dude! You skipped the "how to invert" and "how to scale" it part.. =/
Ay thanks bud
mine is giving error. The selected SVG file contains no information or some unsupported information. The Fusion sketch will not include unsupported geometry.
the tutorial is nice but sadly it doesnt work with logo i need to work with :/ it takes like 40 - 70 seconds before it sellected everything and then it just unselect automaticly + remains green lines... trying to fix this for the last 5 days..
thanks
nice!
struggling with a relatively easy SVG file....some of the shapes will only let me highlight pieces of the shape while other shapes I just click on....simple petal shapes surrounded by a circle. I drew up the design in autocad and converted to .svg. Why did Autodesk have to come up with a whole need language for fusion when autocad works so intuitively???????
Alright so the sketch is green but when selecting theres no option to fix/unfix. Confused.
I have open profiles, but no white points. I can't figure out what's wrong. How do I check?
Muito bom. Obrigado
someones gotta update this video
for advanced users. i even can't follow the mouse.
So... I got my SVG file here which consists of only stroke lines, just a few full circles but only strokes. Is there a way to extrude every stroke like which is not a full object? Like extruding only one stroke?
Super useful thanks. I have a beard.
Any help with an issue?
Downloaded a thingiverse file - opened it in fusion360 - added a vector logo and detracted it into the object - BUT when exporting as STL, it exports the thingiverse object, but not the logo that I added....any help?
Is it possible to remove text/logo from the 3D model using fusion 360? Could you make a lesson for us?
Hi
When I insert my SVG file
And counter all the lines some line turn dark blue and others turn light blue when with multiple selection, the light blue lines doesn't seem to engrave any reason why this is happening.
Thanks would really appreciate a qure for this.
What software do you use to convert your files to SVG files? I am not sure if it matters, but I have a mac.
Can I insert svg file on rounded surfaces somehow in Fusion? Fusion doesn't let me
I am using the free version of fusion 360, can I upload my own svg file from my desktop?
yOU CUT OUT THE PART WHEN YOU INVERTED IT. tHATS WHAT i NEED!!!
@bluesinter EXACTLY!! I guess we're not going to get an answer to how the text was flipped.
I've been trying to import logos and whatnot from illustrator as either SVG, DXF, or DWG and all of them import the sketch and what I get is "hundreds" blocks per section of the file. Is there a way to import it as paths into a single sketch?
If anyone knows, I'd love an answer! Thanks in advance!
NM, I just figured it out. You start a sketch, then go "Insert" and it will insert the DXF or whatever, into one sketch file.
Have they improved the SVG handling in Fusion?
Scott Cress Not at all
Nope, 4 years later
Nice Fusion Friday cheers
I recently done a SVG import used Inkscape for some text outlines and a trace operation. It did seem a bit convoluted considering some of the more complex models/operations I have done as a complete newbie to cad/cam, all I wanted to do was to type some text and have it traced onto a part ruclips.net/video/2237pJ-QHM8/видео.html and not having a preview of the scaled SVG did make it hard to scale exactly to size, but I got it done after a few test pieces, thanks again I must remember to use components more!!
Your videos would be a lot better if you slowed done to a speed where what you're doing could be seen without having to rewind all the time. Perhaps when you have 60 year old eyes you'll understand.
+NYC CNC After clicking the gear I don't see any option to slow down playback??
лайк. :)
How do you make an SVG?
Mostly in a vector creation software like Adobe Illustrator. There are others but AI is the most common.
He talks a little about it on this video:
watch?v=twgAwrnEVNw
Woodglut has very good designs and plans.
I like watching your videos but you move way too fast without explaining how you do it so I use other people to learn from. What is simple to you is confusing to your audience. For example the lack of explanation of how to reach the unfixing option and how you flipped the SVG and prime examples as to why these videos are worthless. If you are going to teach then slow it down and don't skip essential parts.
That is constructive criticism by the way, not a troll. It's something most "experts" tend to suffer from. They may be excellent in their field but are too impatient to pass on the knowledge and then get frustrated when other people cannot catch up. Just try and remember what it was like when you started out learning and ask yourself if you have included all the knowledge to recreate your tutorial.
