Part does not show up in render

I have a problem with 1 part in my assembly: It doesn't show up when I render the assembly in Inventor Studio.
I've tried different materials/colors, checked that it is not set to "Reference" in "BOM Structure" but to no avail.
When rendering the mono part, it won't show up either.

When setting the Visual Style to "Realistic" it will do that "render" and show the part, but that's not what I want.

I've attached a very simplified version of the part (it's somewhat sensitive to include entire part, so I deleted all features except the base extrusion), which has the same problem.

Any ideas as to what is going on?

Yep, exact same thing happened to me. Have you considered starting this part over from scratch?

Sketch Doctor indicates a problem with the sketch.

I generally avoid creating sketches with overlapping lines.

Thanks for looking into this everyone!

 

I will consider re-doing this part, though that might become a problem with our revision system.

Update:

I tried dragging the EoP marker to before the sketch, draw a simple new sketch, extruded that and rendered the solid.

The solid renders normally.

This means that it is indeed the sketch that is the problem and nothing in the part-file itself.

 

Thanks for helping me out, guys!

I wouldn't have figured that overlapping lines would cause such strange effects.
