Oh, AutoDesk…you have such a way with words. Honestly, I would rather learn to design in OpenSCAD than send AutoDesk a single penny.

What we need is Blender with a timeline! Blender is fantastic, I really hope someone adds a timeline.
I have designed a lot of things in Blender but after using fusion the dam timeline made me a fusion junkie.
I love blender, but blender isn’t CAD. Adding a timeline wouldn’t make it CAD.
Well, it already has parametric, so what else is missing?
I’ve been through the donut tutorial. Is there a CAD sketching / exact dimension /parametric modeling interface buried somewhere in Blender?
I, too, have done blender and CAD. Did solidworks in school and then used Fusion. Both have same parametric modeling principles that make modeling work well. I’ve also used blender, and it’s… Definitely not a parametric modeling solution. It could be. Maybe. And if that was an option, that would be amazing.
there’s a plugin for it here. It works well but it’s kind of at odds with the rest of blender’s tools and normal workflow
What’s this timeline? Blender has one for animation, so it’s not the same thing?
Fusion360 tracks everything you do and keeps it in a parametric(?) timeline, which lets you go back in time to make a design change, and that change is automatically applied all the way to your present time design.

I thought blender had a timeline? Or was it removed from a recent version?
You’re talking about different kinds of timelines. It has an animation timeline, you know, for keyframes and stuff. What that other person wants is a timeline for non-destructive edits, like in most CAD programs, where you stack “edit operations”. Difficult to explain if you’ve not used CAD before.
