Unable to modify Parameters or sketch after created once #3

Open truegret opened 3 years ago

truegret commented 3 years ago

Once I've defined a Helix and pressed "ok" in the dialog box no Parameters (or UserParameters) are available to edit in Autodesk Fusion 360 v2.0.10253 for Windows 10 (19043). The Helix Generator dialog window does not appear when I want to Edit the sketch.

When I have finished the project, and export to STL, and import to Simplify3D for example to print, I need to make minor changes to the Helix. I believe this is related to an open issue from 2019. I really like this tool and would like to keep using it.

Same. I very much appreciate having this tool in the first place, but I wish I could edit after creating. I'm not currently smart enough to fix it, assuming it's possible.

I was able to use an alternative method instead of this addin: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-design-validate/create-a-spiral-line-in-a-3d-sketch/td-p/10412456

I can then go back and edit the sketches to resize my helix.

Very cool, rokenbuzz! Thanks for the tip.
