While working on a drawing yesterday, I noticed that the Hide/Show Components in View buttons were missing from the Drafting Edit toolbar. The problem is that I can't find them to put them back. The commands have also disappeared from the menus. I've tried resetting the toolbar, changing Roles, Command Finder, etc., and nothing seems to let me access these commands. No one here has seen anything like this before, so if anyone has some insight, I would certainly appreciate it.

Have you used the 'Command Finder'? If you do and it comes-up, you can then immediately add it to a toolbar.

I sure did, John. A search for "Hide Components in View" in Command Finder produced 700 "matches," and "Show Components in View" produced 704 "matches," but neither return the two commands for which I'm looking.

That's exactly what it was. Thanks, cowski.
