Detail2Body – for Extracting Surface Details
Descrizione
Detail2Body - Autodesk® Fusion® Add-in
Extract Surface Details as Separate Bodies
Detail2Body is a powerful Fusion add-in that extracts surface details from solid bodies and converts them into separate Joiner and Cutter bodies. Perfect for kit-bashing, 3D printing, and design reuse.
What Does It Do?
When you apply features like fillets, chamfers, or holes to a solid body, they become part of that body. Detail2Body reverses this process:
- Joiners — Extracted bodies representing added material
- Cutters — Extracted bodies representing removed material
- Sub-Bodies — Copy related bodies that are not combined with the source
