Sketches missing from browser

A few years ago, i made the move from autodesk inventor to fusion 360. I recently imported an old computer chassis i had rebuilt so i could make mods for it easier when i felt like it. Recently, all of the parts within the assembly no longer show sketches in the browser. They're all gone. I can't even see extrusions or fillets, just bodies and origins.

Now i'll happily admit, i'm probably just an idiot. But when I used inventor, this is where I would find them. So I kinda expect Fusion 360 to be he same.

I've gone into the view settings and ticked all the boxes for sketches and other stuff. I've isolated parts and given it another go, but no change.

Would greatly appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.

You say imported, I guess an inventor file? No import between different solid modelers ever include sketches or features, no history at all is translated. All you get is a solid like importing a STP file. This is the same going from inventor to solidworks or solidworks to Fusion you never get any history, the programs are too different.

Thanks for that. I'd never had to switch the software i used before now. Thought i was going mad! 🙂
