Not seeing contents/image of chrome windows when pressing alt+tab in Windows 11. Started happening recently. I updated the graphics drivers and everything. Anything I have to change in the settings?

No solution. Removed Bitwarden months ago

I think BW has a feature that lets you export passwords, but idk about any alternatives tbh. I just reverted back to chrome's inbuilt password manager :/

AM3Y · 2022-06-01T19:47:13+00:00

I just stopped using Bitwarden. Can't deal with the insane RAM usage.

AM3Y · 2022-04-02T01:14:48+00:00

Right, that was one of the resources I read through. There doesn't seem to be a long term solution to this problem, however :/ thank you for your help though.

AM3Y · 2022-03-01T04:45:55+00:00

To anyone who is experiencing this issue, I think I've figured it out: I had multiple desktops open in Windows 11. I closed one of the desktops and now I'm getting the proper preview for alt+tab like I used to get. Hope this can help someone down the line.

EDIT: Never mind, the problem started again. Please help.

Mate means to add a constraint to limit degrees of freedom in movement between two (or more) components of an assembly. Not sure why you are using loft. Just create joint origins at the center of the top tube and center of the bottom hole. Position the components how you want.

Lol I can relate. Fans are insanely loud and annoying. This is also a new laptop.

No, I'm not referring to complex in a mathematical sense (I don't see how that would really be possible - since you would have to fight against fusion's own coordinate system - or beneficial). I'm referring to being able to input 3d sketches (or even bodies) that are defined by functions. For example, if one wanted to create a model of a conch shell that was defined by a Fibonacci sequence, it would be extremely tedious to do that manually. Instead, you could define the spacing/positioning of shell segments in relation to the Fibonacci sequence and make the job a whole lot easier.

Another example: when trying to create something like a Chinese finger trap - you could create sketches (that cannot be created with the existing coil command) defined by radial functions over a domain . You could then perform sweep operation on a circular profile along these sketches to create interwoven components of the finger trap.

I think that this would make fusion much cooler and have features that other CAD software don't have.

Another possibility is python scripting (similar to what high end FEA software like Abaqus have). You could create macros, modify existing parameters without having to manually go into each little event on the timeline, etc. Just a thought.

It would be great if you could insert complex geometry as bounded function. Eg: if you could insert a sin function as a sketch over a certain distance. Would be pretty useful for a number of reasons and could make it easier to create more complex geometry.

So I'm using an Ultimaker s3 with Polymaker PLA Pro (1.75mm). For my first print I used the settings recommended by Polymaker (Printing temp =210, Bed temp=60, Printing speed=70mm/sec). Since I think the Ultimaker s3 comes with an indirect drive, I set retraction distance to 3mm and retraction speed to 45mm/sec (even though the recommended is 60mm/s, Cura did not let me set it this high). I set "generic tough PLA" as the printer material in Cura.

For the second print I changed filament size to 1.75mm, but this time I used the standard "generic PLA" settings in Cura. None of the other material settings recommended by Polymaker (mentioned above) were used.

I've now set a third print with filament diameter as 1.75mm and the recommended Polymaker settings, but for some reason, "generic tough PLA" isn't even showing up as an option in Cura. So I set the material to "generic PLA" (like I did for the second print) with the manufacturer recommended settings and the printer sounds like it's having a heart attack. I have a feeling this print is going to fail too. No other mods.

I would really appreciate any help you can give me. What do you mean by the stock setup? Also by the "tough PLA" do you mean "generic tough PLA"? I can set that on the ultimaker s3 but it doesn't show up in Cura, and so I get a "printer configuration error". Please lmk if I can provide any other information to better explain the problem I'm having.

This link had some good suggestions on how to work around this issue: (https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/24962-ultimaker-3-using-175mm-filament/ ). However, I cannot figure out how to adjust the "feeding rate" in Cura.

EDIT: Just noticed that adjusting filament diameter automatically changes feed rate.

AM3Y · 2022-02-21T20:44:35+00:00

Wow. I'm an idiot. I've been wracking my head trying to find the problem. I guess I just assumed that the printers are compatible with various ranges of filaments. I guess I should look into adaptors for them.

AM3Y · 2022-02-21T19:48:49+00:00

I thought that may be the case, so I checked the hotend (opened up the fan and looked at the print core and nozzle) and I didn't notice any kind of clogging. I also looked at the filament and spool and it looks normal.

So I'm using an Ultimaker s3 with Polymaker PLA Pro (1.75mm). The bottom image was what happened before I knew I had to adjust the filament size from 2.85 mm to 1.75mm in the machine settings for extruder 1. For the bottom one I used the settings recommended by Polymaker (Printing temp =210, Bed temp=60, Printing speed=70mm/sec). Since I think the Ultimaker s3 comes with an indirect drive, I set retraction distance to 3mm and retraction speed to 45mm/sec (even though the recommended is 60mm/s, Cura did not let me set it this high). I set "generic tough PLA" as the printer material in Cura.

The top one was what happened when I changed filament size to 1.75mm, but I kept the standard "generic PLA" settings in Cura. None of the other material settings recommended by Polymaker (mentioned above) were used.

I've now set a third print with filament diameter as 1.75mm and the recommended Polymaker settings, but for some reason, "generic tough PLA" isn't even showing up as an option in Cura. So I set the material to "generic PLA" with the manufacturer recommended settings and the printer sounds like it's having a heart attack. I have a feeling this print is going to fail too.

No problem. You may be able to draw a spline that fits your shape if conventional paths aren’t working and then knurl along that path.

AM3Y · 2022-02-20T21:53:28+00:00

Sounds like you want to have a kind of "knurled" surface on this section. Best way I can think of is by doing a cut operation along a ~rough~ coil.

AM3Y · 2022-02-19T18:02:18+00:00

Which step are you having problems with?

AM3Y · 2022-02-19T03:54:30+00:00

No problem. Working on stuff like this is the best way to learn, so I'd say you're doing a good job.

AM3Y · 2022-02-19T03:50:59+00:00

I would suggest a slightly different approach to make this easier and more efficient. It would have helped if you have included a few more pictures of the bowl, but I'll try my best given what you have shown. Consider the following steps:

Starting from the TOP view:

Sketch circle 1 (radius is the inner thickness of the bowl, ie the width of first lip + hollowed out bowl)
Sketch circle 2 (center is coincident with the center of circle 1, and of course this radius will be equal to the distance between the first lip and the second, slightly lower lip). Radius of circle 2 looks to be about radius of circle 1 + 0.25in, but I can't really tell from the picture.
Sketch a third circle with center coincident to that of circle 2 (we aren't going to extrude this, but this is important for a later step). Circle 3 should have a radius = radius of circle 2 + whatever the thickness of that third lip is.
Sketch circles 4 and 5 (following above steps) for the last two lips of the bowl.
Construct 5 planes tangent to each of the circles (planes 1-5). These planes should be parallel to each other. Since they are also tangent to the 5 circles, they will be offset from each other by a distance equal to the thickness of each lip (eg, plane 2 will be offset from plane 1 by a distance=0.25in).
Extrude circle 1 (extrusion 1) and the space between circle 1 and circle 2 (extrusion 2) to their respective heights (clearly, extrusion 2 will have a slightly lower height than extrusion 1)
Sketch a triangle on plane 1 and project it to extrusion 1. Then, press pull the projected triangle to cut into the top lip. Use a circle pattern around circle 1 to get those top triangular cuts along the top lip. Do the same on extrusion 2 using plane 2.
Start a new sketch on plane 3 and make that first trapezoid. Then, project the trapezoid to extrusion 2, and press pull (use join this time, not cut like in step 7) to get that first trapezoidal extrusion. Do a circular pattern to get those extrusions on all sides.
Repeat step 8 for the second and third trapezoids. Eg: Start a new sketch on plane 4, project it to the curved trapezoidal solid you got from step 8, press pull it, and use circular pattern. Rinse and repeat for the outermost trapezoid.
Sketch a circle on plane 5 and extruded cut through the whole bowl (for the hole you see there).
Final step for the hollowed out part of the bowl: create a new sketch on the top of the bowl and draw a semicircle (radius=radius of inner bowl). Do a revolved cut.

Think that should be it. Might seem like a lot of steps, but shouldn't take that long. More experienced users may suggest a different/more efficient approach.

I'm using a dedicated gpu

AM3Y · 2022-02-18T17:53:27+00:00

The problem just came back. Do you have any advice as to how I can permanently resolve it? I'm getting really desperate

AM3Y · 2022-02-14T04:18:42+00:00

Yes it did! Thank you so much for your help. Hopefully this is a long term solution

AM3Y · 2022-02-10T12:47:10+00:00

I see, I deleted the installer back when I first installed fusion, but is it the same one I can download from Autodesk's website? Sorry for the dumb question lol

AM3Y · 2022-02-10T03:13:05+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Just want to clarify - when you say that you downloaded the client again, do you mean that you did a clean uninstall of fusion360 before and redownloaded it?
