I'm having a problem when opening a saved solidworks drawing. The drawing views automatically becomes hidden and they are shown as something that looks like "big red envelopes". One envelope for every drawing view. If I right-click an envelope and clicks show, then the view is shown.

How do I make the view automatically to become shown when opening the drawing?

Thank you in advance!
 
I think this is related to your lightweigt settings.

This may be related to the link to the model being broken. Did any other error messages come up?
 
your drawing needs your part, so better transfer/copy your drawing files together with the part files. Unless you saved it as a Detached Drawing.
