![]() ![]() So, it is possible to create a construction point at a specific X, Y, Z location in both parametric and direct modeling designs, but it’s inconvenient in both. ![]() A base feature lets you create an “island” of direct edit data within your parametric design, so it ends up being the same workflow as in a direct modeling design, except that you also need to first create a base feature, as shown below. ![]() However, parametric designs support something called a “Base Feature”. When working in a parametric model, all construction points are dependent on other geometry and can’t exist anywhere in space so it’s not possible to position a point at an arbitrary X, Y, Z location. Using the Move command it is possible to end up with a construction point at the desired X, Y, Z location but it’s an inconvenient workflow to first create the point and then move it. In a direct edit design, construction points don’t remember their relationship to the original geometry used when creating them and they can be moved to any location after they’ve been created using the Move command. You switch between the two modeling types using the command in the context menu on the root component node in the browser, as shown below. When creating construction geometry, there are two situations to consider capturing design history (parametric modeling) and not capturing design history (direct edit modeling). Fusion doesn’t currently support that capability but only supports the creation of construction points relative to existing geometry. There was a discussion on the Fusion forum about being able to create a construction point that’s positioned at a specific X, Y, Z location. ![]()
