Hello, and thank you in advance for any help offered. Why can't I edit this sketch? Yes, I'm moving to the design tab to edit. but, as soon as I click the second line for a fillet fusion360 freezes, every time. It's like that for every tool I tried. I've reinstalled fusion360 with no luck. please help.

What fillet were you trying to modify, could you capture a ScreenCast of your workflow so I can replicate your steps as close as possible?

And I should add (before someone else does) that there is a habit you should get into: Creating Components, and then having everything stored in that Component. When you don't have items organized properly and then decide to move the Body (you should be using joints instead of "Move", but that's a different matter), the Sketch stays where it is and then the body is moved. This creates additional computational loads and can sometimes bog down your system, presenting a scenario where the PC appears to be locked up

Hi,

The sketch is of miserable quality.
I have cleaned it up in an external application (V-Carve) and re-imported it.

Thank you so much. I'm a novice teaching myself, the original drawing was done poorly by a friend in Corel draw.

Hi,

Fillets should be created in body mode and not in sketch.
