If you intend to try this out, I would encourage you to use control point splines instead of fit point splines for the sweep profile. I have only just recently found out that fit point splines do not adjust parametrically when patterned.

I’ve watched more than a few of your videos now and I must say I’ve been very impressed from the beginning. Your videos are not only clear and concise but the subject matter is always interesting. The way you breakdown complex and advanced geometry into simple easy to follow commands is unique to this channel. To do all this in your second language is mind blowing. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m so sorry I’m not rich enough to donate towards the channel.

I think a lot of you must be tired of seeing honeycomb patterns and symmetrical splines by now! Will do something new next week. At 5:30, when specifying the extent of the extrude for the cylinder, I simply clicked on the bottom face of the twisted body. The problem with doing this is that if the height of the twisted body is changed, the cylinder height will not follow. I should have used the "to object" extent option instead. Sorry about this.

Hi! Fantastic Video. I have an issue however. My circumference came to a slightly less amount which meant that my emboss pattern either leaves a gap with 31 or is too wide with 32. Do you know a way to stretch the entire pattern to get a perfect size on all designs everytime? It seems a little limiting to only be able to do it with the pattern settings?

you have to adjust the spacing to get the correct pattern. it is time consuming however.

Be careful when using fit point spline since they calculate tangency weights at creation, and will not re-calculate when re-scaled or modified. This means that you end up with is a spline where the actual shape and tangency depends on which order you dimensioned the points that it was fitted to. To make it worse you can not display, change or verify the tangency weights in any way that I have found. This is a bug that has been in fusion 360 since day one, and has been reported numerous times in the forums, but it will probably never be fixed. IMO fit point splines should be deprecated, and control point spline should be used instead. in this example you'd get different shape of the spline in the first sketch with these two methods: Create the first circle -> create fit point spline -> add dimensions to circle -> add dimension to spline fit points Create the first circle -> add dimension the first circle -> create fit point spline -> add dimensions to spline fit points I know this is the case because I spent several hours hunting down a non-symmetry error when using fit point splines.
@XerxesGustav3 жыл бұрын
There is one more bug that might be a trap for young players with this project. Patterned fit point splines will not be updated automatically, which is different from all other basic shapes. So if you have created a spline, then patterned it, and then change the spline the patterned geometry splines will not update. You have to edit the pattern and then save for ot to update. This is a different behavior to how circles, arc, lines etc behave when patterns are used.
@Fusion360School3 жыл бұрын
@@XerxesGustav Thank you for pointing this out. I have always thought that dimensioning the spline handle would be enough to control tangency weight. I was not aware that order can make a difference. Will definitely need to experiment with this. I went to test out the patterning of fit point splines again and you are right, the patterned instances do not update when the seed spline is changed. This was quite a rude shock to me! I went to try the same thing in SolidWorks and it has the same problem. When I tried patterning a control point spline, the patterned instances react to changes! Looks like I would need to do a follow up on this. Will definitely credit you. Thanks again for the comments.
@XerxesGustav3 жыл бұрын
@@Fusion360School Glad I'm not the only one finding the pattern not updating a bit of a shocker. Happy to help :) It's precisely the dimensioning of the handles that is the problem with the fit point spline. At some point in the code fusion has to do an arbitrary mapping of control handle dimension vs authority of that control handle. There isn't a strict mathematical definition of what for example a 15mm long control handle means to tangency, so fusion calculates something that it thinks is reasonable based on the size of the sketch. That mapping isn't updated when dimensions of the overall sketch changes,. You can test this by for example making two 50mm long perpendicular lines starting and origin , going out the x and y axes. Add a fit point spline to the endpoints of the two lines you just made. Be sure to only have the two lines's endpoints as fit points to the spline. Make the spline handles perpendicular to the lines. Add a 20mm dimension to the spline handles. You should now have something looking like a slightly messed up quarter of a circle. Now, modify the dimension of the two starting lines to be 100mm instead of 50mm and create a new fit point spline on top of the old, with the same input as before. You will now have two splines with exactly the same definition with very different shapes. I have reported both of these as bugs to Autodesk, but so far they seem to think that isn't something they should fix or improve.
