Fusion 360 Electronics for Beginners: Layout | Autodesk Fusion 360

The goal of this Autodesk Fusion 360 Electronics tutorial series is to take the new Fusion 360 Electronics user through their first project, step by step, from beginning to end. If you are new to Fusion 360 Electronics, then this series is for you.
Episode 4: The layout
In this episode we go through the complete layout of our example circuit, the A to Z Fuzz. We cover some ideas on component placement and highlight the powerful routing features of Fusion 360. We'll also go over the use of polygons to perform copper pours.

Excellent video - thank you so much for this. I'm excited to build my first PCB using Fusion 360 Electronic Design

[@BlaiseBarrette]

The edit in place workflow rocks! It's a lot to grasp at first but once you've done it a few times it's not that hard and it's clearly the way to go! Great video!

good job

[@ColinWatters]

I'm sure I'll figure it out but just tried adding a GND Plane and its not replacing GND air nets or adding thermal reliefs anywhere. Only difference I can see is that when I set the net name to GND mine says "Assign polygon to GND" where as in the vid it says "Connect to GND". SOLVED: To make thermal reliefs appear I had to toggle OFF and ON the "Thermals" check box. It was already set ON but they only appeared when I did that.

Hi! Could you please explain, how to put electronic components in honeycomb array? LEDs for example? I could manage only rectangular and circular arrays (also not perfect way with "run" comp array etc.)

[@rickzrostlik8258]

First, this video series has been very helpful, thank you. Following along, at the point (44:02 in the video) where you change the signal name from N$14 to +9V and select yes in the confirmation dialog box, I get an error dialog box "Property Change Failed." and then simultaneously, it pops a second dialog box asking again to confirm connection N$14 and +9V. Any ideas on what might be causing my error?

[@rickzrostlik8258]

I got it. Looks like I managed to somehow route a trace all the way around the polygon edge on the bottom layer. Once I deleted that route, the bottom polygon successfully connected N$14 to +9V.

How RUDE!!! Tell us you will do a logo and then not??? WHY!!!! LOL

[@randomtux1234]

will Ai one day allow you to input the device's overall functions
then it will do everything with one click
schematic, pcb design etc

[@NicholasTali]

yes
