100

a collaborative or individual technique designed to generate a large volume of creative ideas, solutions, or approaches to a specific problem

Brainstorming

100

creates a view that cuts through all visible objects in a design to reveal interior details and obscured features in a Fusion design

Section view or Section analysis

100

a tree-structure panel on the left side of the screen that organizes all elements of a design, including components, bodies, sketches, construction planes, and joints

Model Browser

100
A measure of mass per volume.
What is Density
100
The most common standard engineers use when dimensioning
What is ANSI
200
A limit to a design process
What is Criteria
200

What 3-dimensional sketch is drawn with true size in its height and width but foreshortened in its depth. Creating this half depth will make the object look less stretched in appearance.

Oblique Cabinet

200

The degree of closeness of measurements of a quantity to the actual (or accepted) value.

What is Accuracy

200

two or more circles that share the same center point but have different radii

Concentric circles

200
This is a common dimensioning technique where objects are dimensioned from feature to feature
What is Chain Dimensioning
300
An improvement of an existing technological product, system, or method of doing something.
What is Innovation
300
A form of pictorial sketch in which all three drawing axes form equal angles of 120 degrees with the plane of projection.
What is Isometric Sketch
300

a bar at the bottom of the interface that records and displays every step of your design process (sketches, features, assemblies) in chronological order, enabling parametric modeling

Timeline

300

rules applied to 2D and 3D sketch entities in CAD software that define relationships like parallelism, tangency, and perpendicularity

Geometric constraints

300
All circles and holes must be dimensioned with this
What is Leader Line
400
After defining the problem, brainstorming ideas and doing research, we have to take all this information and complete this step where we go with our best idea to solve the problem
What is Select an Approach
400
A two-dimensional contour that characterizes an object or area, in contrast to three-dimensional form.
What is Shape
400

a type of construction plane used as a temporary, infinite 2D surface positioned at a specific, measurable distance from a reference face, sketch, or plane

offset plane

400
A triangle located round a polygon such as a circle. 2 To draw a figure around another, touching it at points but not cutting it.
What is Circumscribed
400

A circle with a single number connected to an assembly component with a leader line to refer to parts.

What is a balloon

500
A written plan that identifies a problem to be solved, its criteria, and its constraints
What is Design Brief
500
This technical drafting technique is used to show true dimensions of an feature (hole, point) rested on an angled surface.
What is Auxiliary View
500

Creates a transitional shape between two or more sketch profile or planar faces

Loft Tool

500
A curve formed at the interior intersection between two or more surfaces.
What is Fillet
500
acceptable amount of dimensional variation that will still allow an object to function correctly.
What is Tolerance
