Assembly joints that fail do not allow right-click editing

[jrevball]

I recently noticed that when I make a joint that fails (yellow box around joint in timeline), you can then not edit it - or any other joint - unless you refresh the view (click Home or some other view).  It will then let you right-click the failed joint to edit.  This seems like a bug. 

Fusion version: 2.0.12888

I also found that if you wanted to change the failed joint type - say you selected cylindrical instead of planer by mistake - even if you edit it to the correct joint type, it stays yellow (failed).  So, you are just better off deleting and redoing the joint.

I cannot replicate your issue.  Please attach your model so the Forum users can take a look and also create a Screencast showing your process.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

Can you right click, Review Warning?

What does it say?

Just Press Undo until it is fixed, and change the workflow to prevent it coming back.

Might help...

Can you right click, Review Warning?  No, then it is nothing to do with Joint.

Are out able to share your model?

If there is a bug, having data on hand would very much help to determine  and fix the root cause!

I will see if I can share a model this is happening in.

I can "select" the joint that is failed and highlighted yellow, but I cannot right-click to edit it until I do the "home view" (or other view) thing. 

To the "review warnings" question:

"Cannot resolve some component positions because there are conflicts with assembly relationships in the design. <br/> Inspect existing joints, rigid groups, or tangent relationships."

OK, The attached file is my first ever screencast, so no sound.  And, It didn't seem to capture the pop-up windows when you right-click. So, I'll narrate here:

• 0-12 seconds - I'm just showing the two joints that exist with the table leg and skirt.
• 13-30 seconds - Creating the joint that will intentionally fail.
• 31-37 seconds - I'm right clicking the failed joint and the pop-up window is not coming up.
• 38-40 seconds - I clicked the home view icon (my current work-around). 
• 41-44 seconds - I am now able to right click. the menu comes up and I'm able to select edit.  It isn't showing the menu in the screencast, but it's there. 

So - this appears in most of my assemblies now.  I did create a brand new model like John's above, and this bug didn't replicate in that model either.  It appears to be an inconsistent bug with a work around.

Perhaps it happens when there are other unrelated joints to the one that failed? I don't know how or why that would impact the ability to right-click and edit the failed joint. Just anecdotally spit-balling.

Thanks,

Appears to me that the leg and skirt were already joined, that the new Joint is illegal, you knew that.

 Your complaint is about the interface response to mouse clicks?

[jrevball]

I quickly found a better screen capture tool and it shows the pop-up windows now. See attached. 

Much smaller file too.

Correct.  There is a bug that won't let me right-click to edit the joint until I do some "screen refresh" work-around. I intentionally made it a failing joint to replicate the bug.
