Any Fusion 360 Power Users?

Are there any Fusion 360 power users around? I have a few questions I am not quite sure how to ask, but here they are:

Question 1) Is it just me, or does anyone else have issues with their mouse? I try to draw a constrained line, only for it to make a teeny tiny baby line I dont see then my line, which doesn't constrain because of the small added line.  Also, I keep trying to change a file from editable to read only and every time I select it the program de-selects it... It's like my left click is on rapid fire. It's just a simple logi wired mouse.

Question 2) I am not sure what you call it, but I have a question about the white circles at the end of a line. A node maybe? Sometimes when I draw a line on my sketch, and I try to drag the little white dot, say I want to connect it with the edge of a square or circle, it doesn't want to snap and connect. It will drag just short or just too far. And I haven't found a shortcut key to force it to connect/snap...

Probably not a power user but anyway:

1) sounds like a problem with your mouse to me. You can check with an online mouse tester if there are multiple clicks registered for one physical click, I'va already had this with a mouse once.

2) Haven't had that problem yet. Are the objects you're trying to snap to on the same sketch that you're editing. Snap to bodies doesn't work, you have to create a projection on your sketch first

You might have a look at the fusion360 course here:

https://www.prusa3d.com/product/3d-modeling-in-autodesk-fusion/

Sure, it costs money but it will save you a lot of frustration and gain you a lot of fun and satisfaction modelling and printing your own products.

Many many youtube video's available too but quality is not always guaranteed.

Loving the learning curve!

White circles at the end of a line always mean that this line has not yet been assigned a dependency with this endpoint.When you draw a line freely in a sketch, you will have a blue line and white circles at the end.You can move, extend, and rotate them as you wish. This is not ideal for a complex sketch.However, if you center this line horizontally, specify a length, and assign one of the two points to the origin, the line and the circle will turn black.
