Strange yellow outline across page after updating a different sketch.

I think this is the screen shot link.

I was working on a small part of the design and when I mirrored some bodies some unrelated sketches have these crazy yellow stripes and are somehow now attached to the background.

 

I will try several undo functions but this is starting to bug me ( reminds me of the futile efforts with designcad I once had).

 

Undo didn't fix it. 

close and reload didn't fix it.

Am I just screwed on this drawing again?

 

Thanks JC

Hi @jculleton3

 

Thanks for posting! It looks like the dark yellow spots are overlaying sketch profiles, but it is curious that the profile lines are not shown.

 

Would you mind sharing your Fusion 360 design with me so I may have a look into this issue? Feel free to attach an archive file or public link to your next forum post, or private message me a public link if you'd rather not share the design on the forum.

I discovered that there was several copies of the exact same lines on top of each other. 

Because of this some of the lines were connected and some were open.

 

I also zoomed in to the max and found that after I had worked on the drawing some line connections turned into little loops instead of being connected.

 

I believe this happened when I moved a point or a line somewhere else in the same outline and instead of moving the point of a connection (away from where I was actually moving a selected object) it moved just one line and cause a micro loop to form. 

 

I have found all the duplicate lines and all the micro loops (2) and the problem went away.
