Has anyon ever experienced this problem?

I've been working on a drawing, and now for some obscure reason, nothing is showing in the "Drawing" area.

All toolbars accounted for.
All servicepacks installed.

I havent deleted the lot (Checked Command History)

All I've got is blackness.:?

Turn on the lights, take off the sunglasses and open your eyes.

You're sitting in front of the wrong monitor. Go back to YOUR desk.

And you tried a 'zoom extents' and nothing appeared?

And you checked Layer Manager and all layers are "on"?

Is someone in your office having a little fun at your expense? Who did you p*** off yesterday?

I've had this a few times. It's usually something to do with graphics card issues; or even drawings received from (insert expletive) Architects

Did you create a wipeout (with frame turned off) and place it over part (or the entire) drawing? Sort of a "play a stupid trick on myself" thing and forget you did it?

Has anyon ever experienced this problem?

I've been working on a drawing, and now for some obscure reason, nothing is showing in the "Drawing" area.

All toolbars accounted for.
All servicepacks installed.

I havent deleted the lot (Checked Command History)

All I've got is blackness.:?

I have it happen to me, and only on drawings where I have used TTF. If I change the TTF to shx I never see the problem again. Others have said turning hardware acceleration off will fix it.
