Hello Nicolaj. It's not a closed loop until it turns grey. What about these guys? - Scotty

There are two ways to find out where the sketch needs fixing.
First, the profile inspector:
- Open the sketch for editing.
- Click the "Sketch diagnostics tools" button
3. Click the "profile inspector" button
From there it will highlight the loose ends of the sketch:
As @robert_scott_jr_ said: It will turn grey when the sketch is closed. Then it can be extruded.
I find that a little clicky so I prefer to use my custom feature "Find open profiles":
This shows the two gaps that the profile inspector finds but it also reveals a few other oddball bits of the sketch that the profile inspector doesn't report (which are dangling ends that do not prevent the sketch from closing). Maybe useful, maybe not.
