Hello Guys!

Wondering if anyone had same issue we have now and how to fix it. Its been a pain in the ....

Drawings that created on my machine for example have all dimensions, show all bend lines on the flat pattern. Once I check drawing in something happens....

If other engineer gets the drawing from EPDM and opens it,  bend lines disappear on the flat pattern, and actually you can see them disappear while drawing opens.

Tried to go to the Flat Pattern view SHow/Hide Bend Lines. When I click on the ( - ) Bend-Lines2 it change the color to blue and you can see them on the flat pattern, once i move the cursor they disappear.

The only temporary work around I found is:

- get the part and drawing from EPDM,

- open drawing

- open flat pattern from drawing

- rebuild flat pattern and save it.... which magically updates the flat pattern and views.....

If I open drawing later - bend lines disappear again.......

I dont understand .... why I have to do this, prior to drawing creating i do rebuild part and before I check them in I make sure they rebuild and updated.....

Thanks.,
