Under the Create Form pull-down menu, click on Sphere
The next step is to select the plane you wish to sketch the center point of your sphere
Once you've selected the desired plane, you need to pick the location for your centerpoint
After selecting your center point, the sphere creation dialog box will appear
There are 3 ways to adjust the diameter of the sphere (all indicated above). You can drag the blue arrow, type in the diameter next to the blue arrow, or use the prompt in the dialog box.
The Longitude and Latitude face inputs, control the number of faces the can be edited on the sphere. When the settings are complete, clicking "OK" will create your sphere.
Using the Modify pull down menu, you are able to select from several modification options.
When the sphere is created to your liking you can return to the modeling operation.
If you need to edit your sphere, you can click on the purple sculpt icon located at the bottom of your screen.
That wraps the best practices for creating spheres in Fusion 360!
