(Not expecting any responses, this is just the mutterings of a guy driven crazy!)<BR /> <BR /> I created a plan detail using the detail tool. The plan from which this originated used Gridline objects. I copied multiple instances of the 2D details, including gridlines to show alternative situations.

If I draw a new line with the same linetype, when I go to the layout where the detail is placed (which looks ok) then back to the detail window, the lines disappear.

If I copy a different line to the same location it stays, until I change the colour and linetype to the same as the original gridline, then they disappear. <BR /> <BR /> Upon lots more experimentation I have found a solution, though: same linetype but different colour - disappears. Same colour but different linetype - HALLELUJAH it STAYS!
