I've got a series of toilet partition walls in an xref-ed drawing which refuse to show themselves on the master sheet. The xref layer with the walls is on and thawed in the master sheet. Any clues as to how I can get them to come back?

What display style is assigned?
What happens if you insert that
drawing into the drawing it is beinged
xrefed into?

MJ, thanks for your reply. Between y'all at AUGI, Paul Aubin, and the rest of my office mates looking over my shoulder, we have slain the beast.

Is it just me, or is this whole display system unnecessarily obtuse?
After about 1-1/2 hours of digging through the mines of the display manager it occured to me that perhaps the cut plane was set at the wrong height. The answer turned out to be in the wall style, not the display style. The objects that were disappearing were toilet partitions, which of course have a gap at the bottom. I placed an override on the wall style forcing it to cut at 3'-6", and voila, there are my xrefed toilet partitions.

That's an hour and a half I will never get to live again, and my boss can't be too happy about the lost productivity due to fighting the g-d software.
