You’ve likely been gnawing the multi-touch off your Magic Mouse in anticipation of it, but no longer. Autodesk Inventor Fusion is now available for the Mac. You can download it from Autodesk Labs immediately and you don’t even need Autodesk Inventor installed to run it. If you’ve used Autodesk Inventor Fusion on Windows, you’ll notice some differences. And, if you’ve used the Autodesk 123D App, you’ll notice some similarities.
Unfortunately not, even though ADSK has finally released AutoCAD for Mac and Fusion 360 is available for Mac you will need to use either Boot Camp or Parallels and a copy of Windows to use Inventor. Since Boot Camp is free from Apple, it's a cheaper way to go other than having to reboot between Mac and Windows.
Autodesk Inventor Fusion for Mac
Now, I’m not a Mac fiend by any means, so I won’t be installing this right away. Loren Welch has the best Inventor Fusion write-up I’ve seen with plenty of screen shots and a video to satiate your curiosity.
Solids, Surfaces, Visualization, Parts and Assemblies…and, do you see the 360 integration? In case you missed it ‘Insert from Autodesk 360’ was on the Assemble menu. This is good stuff here folks…good stuff indeed. And here is some more Autodesk 360 you will see in IFM.
IFM is Inventor Fusion for Mac. Yes, unlike the Windows version of Inventor Fusion 2013, IFM hooks you into the new Autodesk 360 backbone. Very nice. However, you don’t have as many file import options. In fact, you’re pretty much at the bare minimum of import options with Inventor, AutoCAD, SAT and STEP. As you look at Inventor Fusion for Mac, you’ll notice it actually looks more like the 123D App interface than the Inventor Fusion (Windows) interface. Now, that’s not a bad thing, as the 123D interface is slick, easy to navigate and has tons of nice features for a free app. It does lacks the features you find in the original Inventor Fusion for Windows (and tends to lag on larger files), but even still, 123D is a delight to use.

It’s great. When Autodesk users ask to have software available on the Mac, they’re listened to. But if you’re a PTC Pro/E user, Siemens Solid Edge user or a Dassault SolidWorks or CATIA user… forget about it, right? Oh wait, even Autodesk hasn’t put that same fervor for pleasing it’s users into the Inventor or Revit products… yet.
