    Hello. If hover your cursor over the title of the feature it will provide a message as to why the feature can't complete. What is the message? - Scotty

    It says the rib did not generate properly. Selected profile did not produce a rib body. Make sure the rib alignment and direction are correct.

    it looks like your shell is not applied or is on the opposite side. Maybe your rib sketch plane isn’t correct?

    yup shell was backwards! Thanks so much! I really rely on being able to see the full workspace window complete with viewcube and features and parts list. I don't know why they didn't include those in this tutorial.
