Trying to trace a single line in a sketch

I want to use the trace toolpath to engrave single lines from a sketch, however I'm unable to select them. I've used the break function to break the sketch into lines, but in the manufacturing tab I can only select the entire sketch. I'm a little lost on what to do here!

Hi @tomsaubi,

 

I try to answer your question without seeing your file.

Try to hold down Alt when selecting the sketch line.

That way you can select single lines.

 

Keep in mind when you like to have more than one line, you can select without holding down the Alt key and select the other lines that you like to assign to this selection.

Don't forget to press OK for the selection before calculating the toolpath.

 

Hopefully, this helps you otherwise upload your model.

Within Fusion 360, choose File > Export and save it on your desktop.
After that upload it to this topic so that one of us can take a look at it.

That's exactly it! Thanks so much. That's very useful, and I had no idea!
