Is this forum active?

Does anyone use this forum? It appears that the last activity was in October,2018. I’m new to the academy and am working through the Building Block projects. I have a few questions about the Fusion 360 CAM program but don’t want to waste my time posting them if it’s not an active forum.

Thanks, Tim

I feel like it is a pretty active forum. Not sure how you got the 2018 date. This is my screen shot for activity this past week. And it was a slow week. image

Good to hear, don’t know why I’m not seeing more recent posts. I’m away from my computer right now, will post my questions later today.

I’ve been playing with Fusion 360 for about a year but am just now starting to learn how to use the CAM feature with the Building Blocks projects. The measurement unit type defaults to mm and I can change it to inches but can’t set inches as the default setting for some reason like I can in the design function. Is that just the way Fusion is for some reason? Also, as I’m working my way through the setup tabs, sometimes I’m not able to tab from field to field to set/change the settings. When this occurs, I’m able to click into the field and delete the data and enter new data but the field isn’t outlined in blue like when it allows me to tab from field to field. I suspect I may be doing something wrong to cause this but I have no idea what. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I believe that Fusion and Inventor both default to what ever the CAD Drawing is saved as. I haven’t done a lot of metric drawings lately.
