sketch001 is not a dependent feature of topplate. external geometry is only allowed from parent feature geometry.

What you wanted to do is, have a face of topplate selected when you executed create sketch. To fix what you have now, select a face of topplate and execute "map a sketch to a face". Then select sketch001 from the drop down. Then you should be able to link in external geometry.

tools/dependency graph will show you relations of features.

Depending on your experience with freecad, it is best to post problems like this in the freecad help forum first. Please post back so we know whether or not to close this ticket.

I think I managed to confuse myself on what the issue was to begin with.
The real issue was that the TopPlate became impossible to select any faces on, and I had to restart FreeCad in order to be able to do it again, in desperation, I guess, I tried to attaching to it without originating from a face.

Ok, I can repeat this.
1) edit any sketch.
2) execute "link external geometry" command.
3) without selecting anything, hit close in the sketch task view.
Now the selection is broken.
