If you are referring to the drawing features of lines, points etc, you re hiding them by un-ticking 'show'.

Inn the files you linked, you have "suppress this group's solid model" checked, as indicated by the group names being greyed in the properties home screen.

You have moved a file, and so the linked file is no longer in the same relative directory. Just do as the dialogue suggests, and click yes and re-open it.

Maybe something about your filenames, spaces or special characters or something? I've never had this problem myself.

When I tried your assembly file,I had to open the imported file from that messagebox. The message indicates that it thinks it should be linking from two directories up the tree,(../../).. from the file itself:.

impFileRel=../upright.slvs


Also, you have to save after re-opening the file for the change to take effect, and the program does not warn if you do not.

I use Manjaro..

Andrew- I had already done that. After saving, it still shows the dialog when reopening the file.

There is a bug in locating the missing files manually also.
Imaging I had imported two files for assembly named.
1. upright.slvs
2. topsupport.slvs

If we open the saved file and do as the dialog says
to locate manually the missing file ie; upright.slvs

If you do this, both
1. upright.slvs
2. topsupport.slvs

will the replaced by the upright.slvs
