Can't select edges for Work Coordinate System

When starting a new setup in Manufacture, I want to define the Work Coordinate System by using one of the options such as "Select z axis/plane & Y axis".  However, upon selecting this option, nothing on the model is selectable.  I can't pick an edge, or anything else.  Restarting Fusion 360 solves the problem (edges become selectable again).  Seems like a bug.  Can anyone explain or help?

 

Thanks.

Are you running Windows or Mac? I run the OSX version and have encountered similar mouse issues occasionally. Because restarting sorted the issue I always thought it was something OS related. Does closing and reopening the model sort the issue or does it require a complete restart of Fusion?

That's a great question.  I'll have to try closing the model rather than restarting. I've tried to force it to happen, but it seems unpredictable at the moment. Either way, it seems like a bug to me.

There is a loss of mouse foucus issue in fusion that pops up every now and then double-clicking on the top ribbon can bring it back.

It's possible that your Selection Filters may have been modified at some point. I "think" they reset to default selections when you restart Fusion:

Daniel, can you be a little more specific about this?  What do you meant by the top ribbon?  I should mention, I'm working on a Mac here.

While we are on the topic of fusion losing mouse connectivity, I also have LONG encountered the occasional loss of the ability to manipulate the perspective in the top right hand corner. Sometime closing my model is enough, other times I have to restart fusion. Now I'm curious if the ribbon click will fix that also. Once again I just assumed it was a Mac issue.
