Vanishing sketch

    I'm working in an assembly and made a new sketch so for ref. to work out another
    portion of the design, however when I exit the sketch I can no longer see it. It vanishes!

    Anyone had this happen before? I'm using SW2007 SP4.0 and have never seen this before.

    I've told it to hide/show; suppress/unsuppressed; restarted the program; made it a block and
    re-inserted and nothing works.

    Thanks, Joseph

    It sounds like all sketches have been hidden in the view menu. If that's
    not it, you may have a graphics glitch. If it's a graphics glitch, a reboot
    may clear it. I've seen both.

  4. Friendly reminder-
    You will want to check that setting in your part and assembly
    templates. If those are set with sketches off, it will happen again
    on the next part or assembly you make.

    Thanks! I must have turned it off somehow on this one file since I've never
    had that problem before.
