Sketch Could Not Be Solved - Unfamiliar Constraint Flag

paul_71paul_71 Member Posts: 2
I am having an issues with a sketch that I am trying to add to a plane that I created.  This is really my first multi part OnShape document.

The sketch in question was projected off of an extruded feature, no problems with that sketch and extrude, on a parallel plane.  The error I get is, "Sketch for right wall did not regenerate properly.  Sketch could not be solved."  It looks like the sketch is a completed region.  None of the constraint flags are red when I show all consrtaints.  Also I don't think that I have ever seen those isometric cube constraint flags before.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Paul, those constraints are a "use" constraint and they are blue because they are a reference from outside the current sketch. I can't see why this cannot be solved. If you absolutely need to do it this way you should create a support ticket or make your doc public so somebody on the forum can take a look. 

    Alternatively if you are looking to create another extrude of the same shape you could create it from the original sketch or just extrude the actual solid face.

    Neil,  Thanks for the response.

    I don't really care how I get the final extruded part.  I don't quite understand what you mean by "create it from the original sketch or just extrude the actual solid face."  From what I have read, and videos that I've watched, the workflow I am to follow to accomplish this is to create a new sketch on a new plane, select Project/Convert.

    So I just now tried the operation again on a new, test, plane and everything worked.  Who knows what I did differently this time.

    Paul
