Unable to hide extude body that has a sketch parent

Unable to hide extude body that has a sketch parent

Unable to hide extude body that has a sketch parent

(OP)
I have a user that is unable to click (select) an extuded body or other body that has a sketch or any other parent. If he selects the hide operation first then he is able to select the body and hide. Has same result if selecting extude from navigator of actual geometry. Is there a setting switch for this? It's only on the one box that this functions this way.

Thanks
Jim

Check your 'Type Filter' (first item from the Left) on the Selection Bar. Reset it if there's anything seen there.

Thanks John,
His fix was to restart the session. Thinking back, (it's a little fuzzy) I believe the box was blank but not entirly sure. I passed on your suggestion to check it if the problem returns.

Thanks again,
Jim
