invisible part

What am I doing wrong. I have done a part invisibel in a *.ipn
When I use this *.ipn drawing in the *.idw drawing the part is still there.

I have also problems with parts who is visible in a *.ipn but is
invisible in *.idw.

What´s going wrong.

Did you use replace on similar parts? Were parts made using save as then
put into the assembly? IPN's and IDW's have a hard time sometimes picking
between very similar parts. Can you describe what parts aren't showing up
and how they were made and put in the assembly.

Do new IPN and IDW show the parts?

The drawing was ok until I replaced the part with a new similar part.
In the IPN I can see that the part is "tweak" but without any trials.
In the browser (history tree) the part has noe tweak.
It seems that the part have no tweak, but the pictures show something else.
I then use tweak on the part and place it in the right position.
I then updatethe drawing and save it.

When I look at the IDW drawing, the part is not there.
When I make a new IDW it´s still not there.

Hello
I have a similar problem. I have two ipn explosions where I "dress" my assembly, one part behavies strange, its visibility is set to invisible in one explosion and invisible in the other but I can only make it either visible or invisible in both explosions. The browser settings appears alright visible in one and invisible in the other but somehow it overrides the browser settings and is either visible or invisible in both explosions. Why?
