Hi guys, this one is driving me nuts. How do I prevent the profiles of projected geometries from being selected? The selected profile shown here is from the underlying projected geometry that was generated from an existing body. I have that reference body (and all other bodies) hidden and the projected geometry for the active sketch is also hidden. All other sketches have "Show Profiles" disabled.
Hard to tell exactly the conditions you have just from a picture. Please attach your model and as much additional information as you can. 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.

Still seeing the same issue so I created a simple test project to try and figure things out. As you can see in the image below, if I wanted to extrude the square and leave a hole per the active sketch I would need to click on the "hidden" profile as well as the hole in the active sketch. Not a big deal for something this simple, but for more complex models it can lead to tiny profiles being left out of the extrusion. I've attached the model file and a pic of my Preference settings. Thanks for your help, I'm sure it's something simple that I'm just not seeing.
