Create a Sketch on XY Plane — Fusion360-scripting Code
Adds a new sketch on the XY plane.
rootComp = design.rootComponent
xyPlane = rootComp.xYConstructionPlane
sketch = rootComp.sketches.add(xyPlane)Fusion360-scripting Language Guide
Fusion 360 Scripting allows users to automate design tasks, create custom tools, and extend functionality within Autodesk Fusion 360 using Python or JavaScript (TypeScript) APIs, enabling parametric modeling, simulation, and manufacturing workflow automation.
Primary Use Cases
- ▸Automating repetitive modeling tasks
- ▸Custom parametric design generation
- ▸Batch exporting or processing designs
- ▸Automating CAM toolpath generation
- ▸Creating custom UI commands and add-ins
Notable Features
- ▸Python and JavaScript/TypeScript support
- ▸Access to Fusion 360 design and CAM API
- ▸Create add-ins, scripts, and custom commands
- ▸Automate sketching, modeling, and assemblies
- ▸Integrate with external data and files
Origin & Creator
Developed by Autodesk Inc., USA, as part of the Fusion 360 cloud-based CAD/CAM/CAE platform.
Industrial Note
Used extensively in product design, mechanical engineering, CNC manufacturing, generative design, and workflow automation where repetitive modeling, simulation, or CAM operations need scripting.
