    Can anyone explain why this casing profile is not a closed sketch? Everything shows as being trimmed, or I have selected the arc endpoints to finish the lines off.

    Any ideas on the flaw?

    It seems to be the short line above the two arcs.
    I thinks its to short. I deleted the line and trimmed the arc with the horizontal line. It loaded in a project so I assume it works.

    Thanks Nic.

    I ended up doing what you suggested, joining the arc directly to the inside edge of the casing- eliminating the extra little jog.

    I tried what you said-- that the little jog was not connected to the arc-- but it still didn't work.

    Soo. that being said, I will enter a wish list item that within the profile family editor, it should be able to evaluate whether the sketch is closed and tell you, just as in the floor or roof editor, for example.

    I'll post this on wishlist thread!
