BricsCAD can't find a boundary to extrude?

Extrude isn't finding the boundary correctly?

In BricsCAD a strange error that happens could be that when trying to extrude a 2D sketch, BricsCAD won't recognise the area of the shape as a boundary meaning you can't extrude 

This is a simple fix where you need to run a command called 'SelectionMode' and ensure the value is set to between 4 and 15. (15 being maximum option available)
