Component Color Cycling produces wireframe

For starters, I am very new to Fusion 360 so I may very well be missing something simple.  I updated to the new version this morning (2.0.5508 on Windows 10 pro) and after doing so, one of my projects now has a problem.  When I turn on Component Color Cycle Toggling, it turns one of my components into a wireframe or maybe a clear color that results in a wireframe like view. Two of the three components in this project display fine but the third doesn't.  

 

Is there a way around this or will I just have to turn off that feature when working on this component?

 

(This is a re-post because my first one was flagged as spam for some reason)

I noticed that your "Base 1" component doesn't have the same pronounced edges as your "Hub 1". There seem to be some graphical weirdness happening. Can you try 2 things? 

1. Go to Effects under Display Settings and turn everything off except for AA.Screen Shot 2019-03-12 at 11.23.07 AM.png

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Restart your machine

 

 

Let me know if this fixes it.

That didn't fix it.  I unchecked everything but anti-aliasing with the exception of Ground Shadow because it is grayed out and I can't select it.

I"m not sure why it got flagged as i had already replied but oh well. Both Keqing and i likely need to see your file to see if its model specific.

Ok, here's a link to the model.

Given my total lack of experience with Fusion, I don't doubt that it may be something I did along the way that was outside the conventional methods and therefore caused this anomaly.

It's the opacity of the bodies and components. First set the opacity of the component to 100% then each body. It should remain visible and clear when toggling component color cycle on or off

Hi - so what was the solution? I've been having this issue for a long time with Fusion, and the only thing that helps (temporarily) is to restart fusion. The problem usually reappears within a single modeling session. Running latest fusion version.
