A post on the Autodesk blog for Fusion has announced that, as part of ongoing UI roadmap, the software now offers themes including "dark blue" dark mode. You now have the retina-relieving option to toggle away from Fusion's bright default color scheme between Light Gray, Fusion Classic, and Dark Blue themes, as well as a device-matching selection that intelligently chooses based on your device preferences.
Fusion's classic color scheme will be phased out, but the light grey theme largely preserves its look.
A new study confirms that 3D printers in classrooms can pose a moderate risk. Learn the proactive steps you can take to manage emissions effectively.
In terms of looks, it's a closed-toe mule-style shoe that shows off the common lattice style that has come to define printed shoes. Contrasting Asics branding separates this $250 sandal from the rest, in my opinion. It's a style Asics has toyed with before, with various printed lattices present in some of the company's shoes since 2022 – a part of the growing story of fully 3D printed footwear.

Two ongoing competitions on PCBWay are giving designers and 3D printerers the chance to flex their creative muscles in the fields of AI, mech-eng, electronics, and mascot design.
With it, you can sketch out custom 2D shapes about an axis which then serves as the origin for a 360-degree revolve operation. The tool lets you create custom concentric shapes in a pinch and is yet another sophistication of the popular web app.
In 2025 alone, Tinkercad has gained a sketch workspace and object grouping, and made export behaviour more 3D print-friendly, as well as effectively removed project size limitations through scale factors. As with any design element in Tinkercad, you add a revolve sketch through the shapes library. Read more about it on the Tinkercad blog.
It's called AI Advisor and, functioning like other prompt-based tools, it answers your CAD/CAM and general design-related questions using PTC's accumulated knowledge of design best practices, plus the technical documentation for Onshape itself.
It can't design your models for you, though. PTC explains in a "What's New" video posted to YouTube that AI Advisor cannot access your data, meaning your discussions with it are securely abstracted from the part you are working on.
