Cannot create a picture in sketch

Bmmylek — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 19:34:57 GMT

I can't add an image to a sketch as a reference. Every time I add the image then place it within a plane it gives me an error message stating "Failed to create a circular arc because the same point was used more than once". I haven't added anything to this project yet so there shouldn't be any objects/geometry constraining the sketch.

@Bmmylek Can you please post the image file, the ipt file and state the version of Inventor you are using?

Thanks..

Having actual files to work with is very helpful when posting on this forum..

Hi! It sounds like the sketch coordinate is missing or the geometry defining the coordinate is gone. Please right-click on the sketch -> Redefine -> select the planar face.

If nothing works, please share the file here. Forum expert can help take a look.

Many thanks!
