Fusion 360 has 3 different rectangle commands. The rectangle tool is a commonly used sketch tool in any CAD program.
Similar to the line command, the rectangle tool can be accessed from multiple places. First, it can be activated from the sketch drop-down list. It’s here that you’ll see the rectangle flyout menu has 3 different types. There are 2 point rectangles, 3-point rectangles, and center rectangles.
You’ll notice the 2-point rectangle can also be activated with the keyboard shortcut letter “R.”
