Using Fusion 360 software

[chessie system fan]

I downloaded this program a few days ago and thought I'd start a thread on it for any questions I or anyone might have.

So far it's been fairly self explanatory, but there's one thing that's worth asking.  If I try to make something that's rectangular the proportions seem wrong.  The width looks normal, but the length appears to be a mile long.  However I know the exact distance is correct.  I'll try and post a picture late tonight or tomorrow to show it.  Anyone else who's used this program know what I'm talking about?

Sounds like you need to switch the camera view from perspective to orthographic.

I discovered the problem. I drew all of my dxf drawings in inches and was using mm in fusion.   I thought I had converted to mm correctly but I missed a step.

And in the process you crashed into Mars. Tsk tsk.

I thought of that too!
