I came across this and ended up in "included in fusion 360" from autocad and they dropped Linux support. I now found appimage/flatpac for linux downloads. I'll give them a try one day. > Hope this helps.. The other people involved have a "friend" who happily pays say $50k a year for his 3D cad software, because the value to his company is a multiple of that. They got him to clean up the file. It has printed, I think. The camera still claims "too little light" so I can't see it from here. I've designed a snap-fit in openscad, so next step is to scale it up beyond my print-volume, and add in the joints...
