Soo I relatively new to Creo and this may be a dumb question but it has been a long day. I have a part that I have been working on but it all of the sudden disappeared. It has almost become invisible I guess the best way to put it would be. Everything is the same on the Model Tree and as far as I can tell on the Command Bars.. I don't know where it went. I just went to delete a round and POOF gone. If you could please point me in the right direction of how I can get this part back it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!!
 
it is possibly a graphics problem. I sometimes get that too. If everything is still in the model tree your part is still there. Normally if you zoom to extents then do a regen it should come back.

If it's to do with faulty model geometry, what colour are the traffic lights (just above the graphics are to the right)? If they are red you have a regen failure and need to click on the traffic lights to find out which feature is the problem, so you can edit its definition.

If these don't work, save your part then go to Window/Close, then File/Erase/Not Displayed. Then open your part again.

If it still doesn't display one of the features could be creating a problem, for example a cut that goes through the entire model. Try suppressing features from the bottom of the model tree upwards until the part reappears, then you will know which one needs redefining.
