Blue sketch lines everywhere

Anonymous

When I unlocked a rotation joint it all of these blue lines that look like sketches appeared. They seem to be the outlines of some of the parts in the assembly but there also seems to be a part from another assembly. None of the lines are selectable and they don't disappear when I change the visibility of all of the components to off.

It also seems to highlight some of the components but clicking away doesn't do anything. Is this a bug, or did I hit a wrong button? Let me know if any more info is needed.

Hi,

1. close the design & start new

2. share your design to take a look

Thanks for the reply. Restarting Fusion fixed it. It would be nice to know what caused it.

Same exact issue, only I'm not sure what triggered the problem, only that it had something to do with a complex joint. I say complex b/c the "joint" is actually nested. The central component is a strap hinge where the strap rotates w/r/t the butt plate. But two other components are also involved, one of which slides w/r/t the strap, while the other slides w/r/t the butt plate. I did something, which doesn't appear to be "undoable," and suddenly I was confronted by this mass of blue line geometry. It may have been related to changing which of the components of the joint is activated.

 

The strap hinge appears as a modeled solid in the middle, the rest looks like 2D sketches but with thicker blue lines. Neither of the two ancilary components is modeled. Bodies and sketches that have been turned off (when is Fusion finally going to wake up and provide a layers function, for heavens' sake) It almost looks like some kind of an inspection analysis, but nothing in the menus seems to correlate with it.

 

Does anyone recognize this?

It happens to me too today, hopefully I stumbled on this thread after spending 1 hour trying to figure out what did I do wrong. Closing and reopening the drawing fixed it. We are 4 years later and this issue has not been fixed. Is there anyone still working on Fusion 360 ?? Never seen such a buggy program. Not going to pay for this that's for sure.
