Dissapearing objects and styles after drawing is loaded

Hello, 

 

Could someone give me a hint what's actually happening  here. When I load my previously saved drawing I get  my C3D objects dissapeared and  I've noticed that all of my styles and settings are gone.

1: This is happening while the drawing is being loaded:

2. And this is what I see after the drawing is loaded:

Open your Map Task Pane by typing in MAPWSPACE, then ON. Once it opens make sure the box is checked next to Map Base and not one next to Default as shown below...

@Todd_Rogers , thanks for your reply.  But I've checked this one before, and it does not help.

I noticed your Toolspace is set  Active Drawing View. What happens if you change it to Master View?

@doben  don't really know. I had to redo all my work in a new drawing and hope that it won't happen again.  The thing was that I could not call any settings dialogs or something (for instance create a new style and set default style) I've tried also to import styles from a reference template but to do that you have to save the drawing first, but when there're no styles you cannot save a drawing, because you get an error, that " some of the objects  cannot be saved"...

is it possible that you or someone purged the drawing?

@Yonas89 ,

 

It looks like the styles are corrupted. Do you have any backup copy of the drawing file?

I don't know. It seems it happens with a specific drawing. But it's not a drawing problem. My colleague opened it and it load ok for him. When he saves the file and I try to load it happens the same issue to me. However if he saves a  new file and gives  new name, than it opens up ok for me. Does not happen with any other drawing. I've tried to reste my C3D settings to default. Tired to reinstall whole C3D. Did not help...

ok, I've found workaround at least by myself. 

As all my files are on the server (in this case I'm using Google Drive File Stream) so I copied the problematic file on my desktop. Then I've disconnected from the server. Then opened a drawing successfully. Then reconnected to server again and saved this file back to it's position on a server. At least this workflow works.
