Fusion 360 hangs when finishing sketch

Hello,

 

When i finish editing a sketch on my model fusion hangs and never actually finish.

To reproduce :  activate the component "Fleche" and edit a sketch (for example "sketch47").

 

Here's a screencast and my model (this is my first big model, it's quite a mess !)

 

I have reproduced on my desktop computer (Windows, I7 4770k, R9 200) and the macbook pro from work.

Fusion is up to date.

 

Here's a screencast (inserting it won't work): https://knowledge.autodesk.com/community/screencast/1f9de60d-e573-40a5-8dee-a35c9a629caf

Does Ctrl B (CMD B) return any errors?

I recommend starting over from scratch.

I would fully define each and every sketch.

I would avoid unnecessary Moves and Capture Positions.

I would resolve any highlighted issues as they occurred.

Compute all has strange behavior, just yesterday it was building ok (expect the ImplicitJoinOrigin error, never could get rid of this one) and now feature from way back the timeline are broken (i haven't changed anything this far back). 

I will try to resolve errors but this is difficult because fusion take a considerable amount of time to do anything.

 

I know the model is quite poorly designed, but i'm almost at the end and i don't have the time for doing it all over again (i do this on my free time).

@newwdlesEFJ9Z - Fusion does not "hang" on this operation.  It will finish.  It took maybe 5 minutes on my Mac.  This is a fairly complex design, and is going to compute slowly for these types of operations.

 

If you are close to finishing it, you may want to consider copying the design, and turning off design history, or doing so for some components.  I have not analyzed the design for techniques, but there are probably ways to improve it, for the next design.

Hello, indeed it eventually finishes.

 

Here's an in between solution for anyone having the same issue :

Throughout the design i inserted a lot of screw using the "Insert Mac caster carr component", it so convenient that i forgot that each screw has a lot of detail and there are a lot of srew !

 

So i deleted all screw (this was pretty easy as they are isolated components). Now everything is running smooth again, i can edit any sketch and "finishing" is almost instantaneous.
