The red dots indicate models that are missing (not in session). These are parents to the RU-Z_shape.asm. There may be other models needed to access the sketches you are looking for.

This part includes copy geometry features from another model. You will need to get the parent objects (parts?) of the copy geometry features. If a sketch is available, then it will be in the parent models.

 

The features shown in the model tree with the name KG prefix are the copy geom features in your model.

If you right mouse button over KG_topbase or KG_button and what kind of feature is it? I can't tell by the icon.

When I right click and edit the definition, nothing displays on the graphics window.

Use the global reference viewer to find the path to the parent models for those copy geometry features. The full path should show the name of the parent models.

 

If you do not know how to use global reference viewer, start here:
