Can't Edit Timeline to fix Reference Failures (First Time Post)

Hi!

 

My name is Jacob, and this is my first time posting.  I am extremely new to Fusion 360 (Windows-Ver. Up to date), but have enjoyed figuring out and putting some designs that have been in my head into a tangible vessel.  I have an object I took from T-Splines, To Mesh, to OBJ.  I then had something I wanted to add to the design so I clicked the solid body and used the "Edit Feature" option--This brought me back in to edit the T-Spline body.  After I had made an adjustment I attempted to Convert it back into a BRep.  It displayed a load of Reference Failures.  The bottom line is I am trying to go back in the Timeline at the bottom to edit these Errors and fix them.  I can left click on timeline boxes, but I can't right click or Scroll to ANY given point in the timeline.  It's like I am just left clicking to highlight, but I can't actually move to or edit the Timeline Options.  Thanks for the support!

To fix files go back to the first yellow icon, and some of the others will auto update, (design dependent).

 

Right click on the icon, you should receive a menu, you can review the warning and in the same menu, is Edit Feature,

you need to select that, and follow the steps to fix the problem, reselecting etc...

 

If that fails you will need to attach a Screencast to should us the behaviours, and or attach the file for detailed answers.

 

Might help...

@Anonymous,

 

The first thing I notice from your image is that you are still editing the TSpline (Form) feature.  That's why you cannot edit the features or roll back the Timeline - Edit Form Feature is modal.  Click on the "Finish Form" icon in the toolbar, then you should be able to edit the features.

 

I'm interested in what operations you did in TSpline mode that cause these failures.  Did you change the TSpline topology at all (add/delete faces)?

 

In general, it's easier to get help if you share your model here - lots of helpful community members will jump in to help.

Thank you so much!  This did the trick!  I am often the guy that tries everything but the most obvious.  Literally bought a new radiator once because it was spraying steam from the DOGHOUSE in the RV... got it all unhooked and it was just a rubber hose that I could cut off the busted end and re-attach and it would have been fine. xD
