Has anyone had an issue when making a large assembly, the first few dozen parts created disappear and only show up as an orange shape, or a single dot? You can hilight the parts in the list however they do not appear on screen.

What happens if you hide all but the objects that seem to be disappearing? Do they appear?

No. Still just orange and no shape to them.

@AWDEngineer it looks like you have section view turned on by accident.
