I opened a drawing today and all my labels were gone. My network and surface are from datashortcuts. The really strange thing is, if I run QSelect, it will find the labels, and I can even change the style from the properties palette, but nothing I do will make them display. Does anyone have any insight into why this might happen?
The really frustrating/confusing part is, I opened a bak file in the temp folder that was a week+ old and the labels were still in that one. Nothing has been done to the file since then, except maybe adding some dummy labels.

Does it help if you change the drawing scale?
Sometimes in Profile Views the values in Bands are gone, and changing the scale mostly bring them back.

Any chance you can share the drawing here?

Tried, but nothing happened.

Can't, it's part of a large project and they're pretty funny about file sharing.

check that all layers associated with the pipes and or surfaces and labels for same are on, and thawed.
also verify that 'level of detail' setting is off
and...last that you are in a true WCS PLAN view

on a side note....
they would probably be happier sharing that file to solve the issue
than having to redo all the labeling... :evil:

touche.
For submittal, the one found in the temp folder worked fine. The drawing was basically a network, surface, and the base file xrefed in, so little in the drawing had actually changed.
However, I'll cut out everything that isn't important and post something later.

Interestingly....I get the whole 'proprietary' 'super secret' job thing all the time.
Yet it is very easy to turn any drawing into anonymous data and still get the help that is needed.
Anytime and every time I help someone, or do training for a company; there is always an implied
NON DISCLOSURE.

... implied non-disclosure.... the lawyers would have a field day with it. The people doing the work may have implicit trust in your integrity, but only rarely do the people on the cad station have ownership of the drawings and the authority to send them out to a non-contracted person.
