Drawing a contour profile on Sheet Metal using project / intersection - Issues

[Anonymous]

After selecting the YZ plane as indicated in the lesson and executing the intersection command, I am not able to get the points shown, and when trying on drawing the contour line, it is drawn only on one side. What am I doing wrong? Please advise

To really confront design intent and workflow, you'll need to include the  design here - File > Export > Attach the file to your reply.    Better still, record a screencast of your workflow.

I went over the exercise again, and was able to do the profile this time. For some reason I could this time select the two points requested for the exercise. 

One question: If you look it over, I had to modify the contour by adding radiuses  and that generated an error message telling that the new contour did not match with the previous body. When I deleted, it asked to do a new body, reporting again the same error. I wasn't able this time to get the profile section as the instructor did. Could you explain why this happens?

Thank you for your help and support.

Sharing the design in the way you have requires Click Link > Page Load > Select Pull Down Menu > Select File Type > Enter Email Address > Submit > Open Mail Client > Locate Mail > Open Mail > Click on File Link.

If attached to your post here (Attachments > Brows > Open, launched below the text editing window), would-be helpers jump directly to that last step.

I'll review the design.    Without a screencast, it may become a bit of a whodunit.    That said, Fusion is even more particular about procedure than I- cases like this are often answered "Colonel Mustard, in the Timeline, with an Anachronism" - but who knows?   It may be Mrs. Peacock, in the Viewport, with the Delete Key.     It's never Professor Plum - he attends closely to instructions.  😉

It seems that the corners on Body 2 (remember: name everything) do not have a supporting Sketch- how were they produced? As part of a Sheet Metal feature?

and that generated an error message telling that the new contour did not match with the previous body.

Is that the exact wording of the error message?

When I deleted *snip*

Deleted what? A Sketch, a Sheet Metal Feature, a Body? A better inspector than I could deduce the workflow, I'm sure - but I'm just a lowly detective.
