Inventor:Disappearing grid and drawing
Alright, a teacher I know has a laptop (WinXP Pro on it, very new) with Inventor. In sketch mode, you can't dimension without a 'void' of sorts covering the dimension value and the drawing. You can move the dimension as far away from the object as you want, the object can be seen but the 'void' still exists. Also, if you leave the dimension there, and do a 3d rotate, you can find the drawing on the other side of this 'void' if you previously covered it with the 'void.' You could call it a curtain.

I know there was at least one thread that described a similar problem, but no real solution as far as I saw. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

-Joe
