I am using SW2004 sp 2.1. When opening some drawings, it will show the feature having dangling dimensions and/or it will not be there. When I go and open the model the feature is there. I don't even need to rebuild the model. This also happens when the drawing is opened using SW viewer. Also, font size in some annotations is increasing when printed. Are these solidworks faults? Or are my drawings sub standard?

Any susgestions much appriciated

Do you have multiple configurations of your part? Perhaps the drawing is showing a different configuration.

What OS and graphics card are you using?

Thanks will look into that. Have had problems there before.

I think our graphics is more towards the low end so will investigate more. Thanks for the faq link too.
