terminal in panel

I'm having a problem inserting terminals on my panel. I have the geometry drawn, but when I put them in on the panel I only see the outline. When I move, rotate or any other command I see the geometry, but once I finish placing the part everything is hidden again...any suggestions?

This sounds like it is an issue with the WIPEOUT entity placed on the
terminal footprint blocks. You might try opening the footprint block in
question and using the Draw Order 'Bring to Front' option to bring all the
graphics on the footprint block to the front except for the wipeout entity.

The Bring to Front command is located from the Tools pull-down menu under
the Draw Order option.

When this happens to me, I sinplyissue an Insert command, select the drawing file for the block, select Yes when asked to redifine existing blocks, then cancel without placing the new block. This updates the draworder of all the previously inserted blocks to match how it is in the file.
