Alert - Feature applied to different bodies since the last update 1

I'm a new NX user, in 8.5. I'm getting an alert on an extrude feature, that is created from a sketch and extruded to the next face, which is a sweep from a sketch. The alert is, "Feature applied to different bodies since the last update". I don't recall editing any of the parent features, although I guess I might have. Would that cause the alert? Is there any other way it would show up?

I can't figure out how to clear the alert, except for going into the extrusion, changing the parameters (from Until Next to a value), and then changing them back. Is there a better way to do that? The text of the alert makes me think there's some sort of Update command.

Thanks in advance!

After checking that the result of the extrude feature is valid/desired, right click on the feature and there should be a 'clear feature alert' (or similar wording) option on the context menu.

Thanks a lot! Any insight into what might have caused something like that? A change to the parent features, or the children?
 
Difficult to say without seeing the file. Based on your desciption, I'd guess the face that you are extruding to had a significant change.

I had the same thing today, I made a change to an extrusion (took some fillets out of it and put them in later I think) and the alert came up.

The problem once, I cleared the alert but it kept coming back. Also tried tools > update > update model but it wouldn't go away.

Think in the end I ended up changing the boolean and then changing it back to get rid of it.

A curious one.
