🏯 ZenExport - Streamlined Local Saving for Fusion 360


The “Peace of Mind” Local Save Workflow for Fusion 360.
ZenExport is a Fusion 360 Add-In that replaces the native Cloud Save (Ctrl+S) with a powerful local asset manager. It forces a disciplined, organised folder structure on your hard drive, keeping your IP safe and your versions sane.
✨ Features that Spark Joy
- 🚫 Ctrl+S Override: We intercept the native save command. No more “Cloud Save” dialogs. One press, one local backup.
- 🧠 Smart Context Binding:
- Setup a project once. ZenExport remembers which local folder belongs to which open tab (even “Untitled” ones!).
- Switch tabs, press Save, and it goes to the right place. Every time.
- 💾 Incremental Versioning: Auto-saves as
Project_v01.f3d, Project_v02.f3d… never overwriting history.
- 🚀 Intuitive User Interface: A simple design makes it easy to save your work without hassle.
- 📁 Customizable Folder Structure: Easily set up your own organized folder layout.
