Sketch dimensions disassociated

Attached is a machined rotor that is rolled back to the cutter dimensions.
This item will not update because some dimensions are not connected (color is brown)
What would cause this, and what would be a solution?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi TheRealDeal55,

If you want to analyze your sketch I would recommend the "Sketch Analysis" tool (Tools menu -> Sketch Analysis) and then go to the "Diagnostic" tab.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

P.S.: I think that you changed a dimension that "upset" another feature (filet or chamfer) or... your dimensions are incompatible between each other (ie.: a cylinder's height is specified by two dimensions not equal to each other.)

I forgot to mention that the "Geometry" tab has a "Corrective Actions" set of button... you should check them out as well.

Thanks TibiX! You were right about the extra dimension.
