External geometry no longer aligned in a sketch

I've been having a problem with my external geometry today where some sketches are losing alignment, is this something I can correct in my file?

All my sketches are fully constrained.

FreeCAD version 0.18

You are probably facing a Topological Naming issue. If you make changes to earlier sketches, then the numbering of the edges, faces, and vertices can change which changes the referenced items.

Fixed, thank you!

Would be nice for others to tell how you fixed it, or I guess I think so.

Sorry, I thought it was an obvious fix after searching the wiki.

I followed this guide: https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Topolog ... ng_problem
