Error in timeline for feature that does not exist

rwmshopping — Thu, 21 May 2026 16:09:24 GMT

I have an error regarding a chamfer in my timeline. The chamfer does not actually exist within the file and right clicking on the error to resolve it does nothing. I believe I previously deleted this chamfer but it still shows up in the timeline in red. How can I resolve this? Is this a bug?

I am also thinking it may be related to an object that was Removed. Can that be resolved?

If you wish to simply remove the bad chamfer, in the timeline, follow the process shown in the Animated Gif.

Simple fix! I did not think about rolling the timeline marker because I did not think I needed to. Most other features can be edited without doing so. Why does Fusion make this more complex just because the part is removed? You should be able to delete this without rolling the timeline.

That you sincerely for your interest and help. You have resolved my issue!

Summary for others: To delete a feature from an object that was removed you must roll the timeline to that feature before it can be edited.

Compute All after deleting the feature.

What do you observe?

If this were my design - I would start over from scratch using what was learned from this attempt.

I would fully define each and every sketch.

I would use only Origin Planes for sketches (not part faces).

I would use the Sketch Slot tool for a slot feature.

After deleting the specified chamfer from the timeline, then executing an Compute All, I do not observe any change at all. If you see something else, please record a video of what you see.
