Connection between end points -- problem with red dots

[cgherghe-2]

I am having sketching problems when it comes to uniting even simple segments.
Maybe my config.pro settings are off, but CREO 10 / Win10 is butchering even the simplest connections between an arc and a segment, or even between two angled segments.
Is there a way to fix those red dots? Like uniting them together or something...
No matter how much I magnify to see what the problem is, CREO still shows them on the same line, but in the end makes them red anyway!
Drives me completely nuts!!!
Maybe my settings are wrong, or not set up to snap correctly, but I do not know where to look.

Are segments overlapping/doubled?

Have you tried using corner to ensure the ends are at the same point?

Can you share a file?  This would allow us to investigate the geometry, otherwise we are only making educated guesses.

Here is the file.
Is there a better method of sketching that does not use so many centerlines?
I feel that this is what my problem really is, and that there has to be a better way -- after a while, these centerlines become really unmanageable (especially if they are 0.1 mm apart, that becomes a nightmare really quick).
Many thanks!!

Hi,

please see uploaded video and part created in Creo 10.0.6.0.

Here is what I ended up with.

Have you used any of the trim tools on these entities to "connect" them as intended? It appears from your picture that trimming these three draft entities would "fix" the issue.

You can avoid the trim operations in some cases by building the sketch with the desired constraints used for draft entity creation in sketcher (fillet, tangent arc etc.).

I do not know what the trim tools are, but I will search for some tutorials on YouTube. 
If you have any good links that would be very much appreciated!

After looking at the sketch, the Corner tool in Edit is what you need to use:

To Trim Entities to Each Other

It will extend or trim two entities to where they intersect.  Select the tool, select the part of each entity you would like to keep and they will be trimmed or extended to meet at a point.
