Offset sketch projection

How can I get F360 to offset an entire sketch projection for this simple loop?  When I try, F360 won't allow me to select the entire projection.  I had to use a piecemeal approach by using the command 4-5 times to get the whole loop.

Thanks!

Hello,

 

I have a workaround, don't use the projected geometry. Just select the side of profile.

In case you already have a projected geometry, try to find the selection with whole loop

 

regards

Martin

Yes, that works great for me when I extrude a simple shape and try it.  In this instance, I'm projecting the edges of model that is hidden in the screen cast and neither of those solutions work.  I'm happy to share the model offline.  Thanks for your help.

I’ve seen similar behavior. When I have experienced this lack of loop selection, it has traced back to a projection that left some gaps in the loop- nothing I could see or detect, but Fusion did not see it as a continuous loop. That’s another sort of problem, but I would try deleting the straight segments and replacing them with lines to see if the loop select changes. Or, if possible, select a different part of the base model to project- a face rather than an edge, say. Another approach might be to break the links and apply coincident constraints. Several times I have had to use these approaches to get an offset to fully select a loop.
