Invisible/Fake Sketch Profile

[joshcraft3d]

I have come across this issue several times, and the annoyance of it is finally getting to me.

Several times I seem to get a random profile, that is not really being generated by anything. You can select it but it does not highlight it like a normal profile. Hold Clicking you can see both profiles where there should only be one. In some cases you can see the overlap colors of the profile areas. When using these sketches for features, you have to Hold click select all of the profiles you want to use, because it quickly flashes between the one you want and the Fake one.

I do know about the profiles generated when you create a sketch off of an object, but those you can easily remove by setting the invisible profile lines to construction.

The below sketch was drawn on the XY plane. You can sort of see that there seems to be a ghost profile of all the lines. You can see around the circles that there seems to be a ghost circle offset from it, but none of it can be interacted with.

And restarting Fusion 360 seems to have removed it 😑. I guess the issue is just a hiccup when working in a file for a while.

Sorry for topic resurrection but this bug still randomly happening to me. I never turned on auto projecting of profiles etc. The last time, this bug duplicated all profiles in a sketch. I realised it at a moment when rectangle selection selected double of profiles I created. Everything were OK (I mean points, curves, projections, etc.) but another profiles appeared at the same place of original ones and I can not select them or delete them. I was not able to recreate this situation intentionally.
