Fix sketch constraints

I cannot extrude the two areas, the sketch isn't closed.

There isn't an onpoint constraint where the arrow is and i cannot make one.

Also i cannot grip from the edge and move line A altough there seems to be no onpoint constraint on the edge with the arrow.

How do you make an onpoint constrint? you select first the line and the point, the two lines or what?

Running Sketch Doctor fixes this problem on your part.
BTW - you should Mirror Features rather than sketch entities (on something like this I might ignore that general rule and mirror the sketch just as you did - but I would change the projected to construction).

BTW - if your design intent was for these lines to be co-linear the 60mm dimension doesn't do it.

The workplane and Sketch2 aren't really needed.

How do i access the sketch doctor here?
I think it is only available when there is a red cross sign, no?

Try to Extrude.

Because Inventor sees it as an open curve it defaults to Surface output.

Change to solid output and the red cross appears.
