| - | * Fusion360 is a cloud app, running partly on your computer and partly on Autodesk's computer. What your computer is great at, it's allowed to do, but what your computer can't handle, Autodesk's computer manages that. When you go to Offline mode, your computer will have a bit more work to do, and there are a few glitches in the offline mode. \\ | + | STL is ok for sending to a 3D printer but I would not use STL to transfer mesh data to a CAD app. Use OBJ or similar because this allows individual part remaining individual. \\ |

Some cloud tools and model translation is only legally allowed to be used on Autodesk computers, so with the cloud you can use some of those tools. \\ |

| * Constraints are a needed torture... Getting used to constraints was hard for me, because my sketch nodes kept locking down and displaying alien-like glyphs. Constraint symbols tell each line or object what the rules are, and the limitations, so two objects can be locked down to a certain size or distance. A constraint is smart, so you can make a car tire larger without enlarging the bolts in it. \\ | * Constraints are a needed torture...

| - | * Similar Software: Sketchup is easier to learn, but not quite as stable and not nearly as many features as Fusion 360. Autodesk Inventor is even more difficult to learn than Fusion 360, and is more of a industry CAD program for sending a product to a factory.\\ | + | * Similar Software: Sketchup is easier to learn, but not quite as stable and not nearly as many features as Fusion 360.
