I have a drawing view that is displaying an assembly in an exploded state. The drawing works fine, rebuilds well and is fully resolved. I need to modify the explode steps to add a component to the assembly so I opened up the assembly. It rebuilt and resolved fine.

I went to find the configuration with the explode steps in it and imagine my surprise when I find out there is no configuration with an explode configuration in it! If I go back to the drawing and check the properties on the drawing view, the check box option for 'Show in Exploded State' is checked and grayed out. If I change the configuration of the view, the explode collapses and I cannot get it back.

Has anyone heard of this problem happening before? The drawing was originally created in SWX2007 and we have recently switched to SWX2008. Any known problems there?

Thanks for any help!
