Manufacturing: Cannot choose faces for 3D parallel

I have a part where i do a 3D parallel where I have choosen a couple of surfaces to avoid. All fine. 

Today,  a couple of weeks later (and at least one newer version of Fusion 360) I cannot choose faces. The only thing i can choose for the surfaces to avoid is the whole model. Something changed, because this was not a problem earlier.

 

If I open a old version of my file the surfaces are selected just fine. If I delete which surfaces are selected, I cannot select them again. 

 

Either something changed and I dont know how to choose those surfaces OR its a bug. 

 

I have attached the part. Its the Parallel2 that acts up

Seems to be down to having this sketch visible. I have seen this before for a long time, you can not select faces behind a sketch. Either hide the sketch or click and hold on the face then select from the pop up list.

Note, part of the problem is caused because you have auto project enabled so when you created the last 2 sketches and added the lines you end up with 4 closed profiles.
