    I'm guessing this add-in is abandoned. Installation doesn't work on mac, there's no instructions to fit, or indication that anything will change.

  • Error with publish Pieces
    Masami Hourin | April 18, 2023 Verified Download (What's this?)

    When I press the "publish Pieces" button, I get the following error and it does not work, is there a solution?

    It used to work before, but probably stopped working after the Fusion360 update.

    The version is "Fusion 360 2.0.15995 x86_64"

    OS is "Windows 11 Home 22H2"

    A little steep for use with a bunch of high school kids, hopefully they figure out their own way

    Brian Buxton | May 04, 2020

    If the price is too much... A poor man's alternative is to export as obj or stl and use either Headus UV Layout or Rizom UV to unwrap the pieces. The workflow is similar, you mark seams then unwrap. Both UV applications can display a heatmap for polygon distortion so you can add cuts to flatten the pieces to an acceptable tolerance. Nowhere near as accurate but for most projects it is enough.

    Works perfect. if you are using a mac you have to use google chrome as safari will not display the graphics.
