You also have the option to share the properties as well as only export the 2D views. When you create a new Shared View from AutoCAD it allows you to share either the current model space or model space as well as all the layouts. When you create a new Shared View, a dialog box opens which allows you to change the name of the view as well as Hide the component names and properties. The shared view panel opens up.įor AutoCAD you will find the Shared Views under the Collaborate tab in the Shared panel. To access the shared views from Inventor click on the Collaborate tab on the Share panel, select the Shared View button. This makes it great for sharing and commenting all from one convenient place. Inventor and AutoCAD are also able to upload from within the CAD application to the Autodesk Viewer. The first one is to drag and drop the file that you want onto the web browser or browse through your folders on the workstation or server through the browser.

Maybe my idea isn't the best but it seemed to me a very convienent and I would think quite simple way to bring F360 a little more integrated to the dektop and your local files.Sharing a view can be done from a number of platforms. This is a fact and one that many people have commented on and complained about in one way or another. I'm sorry if you don't like my idea and apparently can't seem to see how this is an inconvienence but it is not just a point of view that F360 being so far removed from your desktop is at times an inconvienence and a hindarence to workflow. It is also inconvienent to open them all up in some other viewer (or I would probably just use something like freecad) to find the file and then need to go back to F360 to upload the file you want to work with.

A typical upload might take a few minutes but if I am navigating through archived folders on my desktop trying to find a particular model and open a folder that has 5 step models of various revisions it is kind of rediculous to need to upload all of them to view them in F360.
