After drawing a square, or any feature, and pressing ENTER once feature is completed; the feature dissappers.  I have all visibilites turned on.  Only way I can see the item I draw is by double clicking the sketch in the browser menu.

Are you referring to after creation the item disappears? What is the state of this option:

Yes, after I create a box (line or whatever); the box is not visible.  The program acts as if the auto-hide feature is still selected.

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file that exhibits this behavior to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

Does the behavior persist if you reboot the computer?

Is this a new problem (used to work but now doesn't)?

Or did it never work?

So, it appears this issue only exists on this one file.  I opened up other designs and the sketch feature and visibility works as expected.

What behavior do you observe if you make the Control Box component the Active Component rather than the Main Assembly?

I found the solution.  Objects in display settings were not selected in this file.  Not sure how that happend but issue is resolved. Thanks for your help and time.
