Drawing 2D

the lines do not appear for me when I switch to drawing.

Go to you Preferences and select a different Graphics Driver.  I would suggest DirectX 11.  You will have to restart Fusion when you change to a different driver.

I do not see any views created on that sheet.

What happens if you click on the first sheet in lower left corner of screen?

What do you see if you expand the Sheet Settings?

@cncWNGXZ Can you please provide a screenshot of the readout from Help > Support and Diagnostics > Graphics Diagnostic?

The option in Preferences > General is actually limited to the 3D modeling canvas.

For Drawings, you can attempt to override the graphics API using environment variables.

1. Create an environment variable named GS_DEVICE 
2. Set the value to one of: Dx11, swDx11, Dx12, swDx12 or OGL
   • It is likely already trying to use Dx11, so try OGL too
   • The options prefixed with "sw" are software rendering, so may be slower performance but more compatible

If I print to PDF, it will look like this.

That's why. This chipset's last driver update was 10 years ago. You could try forcing software rendering, but there is no guarantee this device will work with Fusion.
