"Look At" feature rotates and/or flips sketch depending upon angle of view.

I have spent hours now trying to figure this one out and I am now at my wits end with Fusion.  Short story--when I create a sketch on a plane (as in this case below Z/X--with Z up), then move, and attempt to "look at", the sketch is instantly flipped to Z down).   The .mp4 file does a better job of explaining this. I have unselected "auto look at", turned off all "3D sketch", turned off "allow 3D sketching of lines and splines" reinstalled fusion 2x today, updated OS, updated graphics card firmware, reset defaults, updated every possible application / firmware / patch  for hardware, router, switch, and light bulb in my house.  Nothing works.  Hoping someone can tell me to simply unselect a feature that I haven't discovered.  Any help is GREATLY appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi Gunther,

 

I'm a relatively new fusion 360 user.  when problems are "known" by Autodesk, and solutions are being "worked on", is there a typical solution time---days, weeks, months?  Also, if you happen to know of a work around to this?  I am sketching on a plane along a 3 dimensional path and find editing the sketch to be very cumbersome / difficult without having the  "look at" feature enabled in a way that "trues up" the plane in a way that makes sense as I can't rotate to an exact angle.  I have tried the constrained orbit feature to get me "almost there" .  Thoughts helpful.  thanks.
