Copy New Error - "Failed to get target occurrence transform"

Hello,  

 

Fusion 360 newbie.  I think I created the original component correct.  I first added a new component, then inserted a dxf file (I beam cross section) while that component was active, which created a new sketch under that component.  I then extruded a body as part of that component.  All good so far, I even managed to "Copy New" once without any problems.  After doing a bunch of work I then tried to copy that same component and now I get this error.  I open the sketch (of the copied component) and there isn't anything obvious to me wrong.  I've attached the exported project, the copied component is named S 4x7.7:1.  Thanks for any help.

Greg.

You can mover forward if you right click on each of the timeline sketches, with the yellow error background, and select "Convert to DM Feature".  DM stands for Direct Modeling.  This will create a "Solid" in the place of the sketch and the Extrusion, not the best thing in my opinion but it will get you moving again.  I attached a your model, with a different name,  with this solution but I do not think you will need it.

@jhackney1972 Thanks for taking a look.  I think my problem might be I used the default sketch and imported the dxf to it.  Extruded the body, then moved the body to a new component.  I think, still trying to get the workflow correct.
