Sketch grid disappears when sketching!

See screencast, somehow, on just this one drawing, whenever I select a sketch tool, the grid disapears. can't figure out how to stop that.

Not sure if it would help but have you tried updating your gfx drivers or turning off all the eye candy effects in Fusion? Its probably a bug though I would give that a shot.

This does look like a bug. Could you post your design, or share it so that we can see if it is a general problem? As @PhilProcarioJr says, it could be a graphics issue particular to your system, or it could be a more widespread problem that has something to do with this sketch.

Thanks,

Sorry Jeff, almost forgot about this. Been too busy having fun the CNC machine! Here's the link:

@jeff_strater

I just revisited the design and found that problem is only there for that one sketch. Created a new sketch on another face and it is fine

Thanks for reporting this issue. I logged incident ID, FUS-22125 to track this issue. It looks like the sketch grid fade is impacting the appearance negatively. I was able to reproduce the issue quite easily. We will take a closer look!

Thanks,

This is a new problem to me. For a while the grid would disappear and sometime come back and while it is gone I can not see what I am drawing. I also have a hard time deleting sketch items often taking many tries before it is gone if it works at all. If I restart 360 and sometimes this helps. Very frustrating stuff to deal with. A drawing that I had almost done in an hour and then five hours fooling around to try to get these problems fixed all to no avail, still no usable drawing. Searched all the forums and no use. The grid settings are half grayed out as well. Did I mention how unbelievably frustrating this is, I am a compulsive finisher and I just can't do it with 360 at this point.

I use amd for my desktop. I tried my intel laptop which did an upgrade. When i first started up it worked fine but after a few minutes the same problems were back as per my desktop. I reinstalled 360 on my desktop and was okay for a few minutes then the old problems came up again. Seems like the software is corrupting. Why aren't everyone having these problems?? It makes 360 totally unusable and this must have come from one of the more recent updates.

????????????????????

I have not noticed this problem since I reported it with this design.

I have plenty of other odd sketch behaviors from time to time (need a restart to fix, etc). But that's another story.

At this point I haven't even bothered to report them. It's not like they get fixed anyway......

I just do very simple drawings for the most part. I had forgotten about this issue. Happily sketching away and it's baaack. Grid disappears and can not see any lines I am attempting to draw.
