Autodesk released Service Pack 1 for Inventor Fusion Technology 2012. So, if you are having issues with Inventor Fusion 2012, go and download Service Pack 1 and see if it helps things a little bit.

Inventor Fusion Service Pack 1 32-bit

Inventor Fusion Service Pack 1 64-bit

Here are some of the issues addressed by the Service Pack 1:

Form Edit

• Edit Edge
• Closed circular and elliptical edges must be split prior to being edited. Failure to do so would result in a hang or a crash.
• Unable to edit curve points after turning off symmetry mode.
• Work plane can not always be used as a symmetry plane.
• Twin symmetry result is not always correct.
• Solid entry in browser changes to surface after getting error in edit edge.

AutoCAD

• The visual material is not retained when copying and pasting the solid from AutoCAD to Fusion.
• While using the Inventor Fusion Add-In for AutoCAD 2012, if you "Save As..." in Inventor Fusion and then make further edits, all the changes will be lost when you "Return to AutoCAD".
• Changes to surfaces in AutoCAD 2012 will not be retained in Inventor Fusion when editing using the Inventor Fusion Add-In for AutoCAD 2012.

• When opening multiple files, the Close/ Maximize/ Minimize/ Move buttons are blocked by the Ribbon.
• Unable to paste value to precise input textbox(HUD) using CTRL+C.
• Unable to measure angle between face and work plane, or two work planes.
