Hi All, 
I have an issue with my viewports.
I modeled a 3d model in modelspace and have dimensioned it in paperspace (on top of the viewports).
When i set the viewport (clicked inside the vp) to 3D Hidden visual style the viewports hides all dimensions and text.
The viewport is reacting as a wipeout frame it lies on top no matter what.
Even when i draw a line over the vp the part of the line that overlaps the vp is not visible the parts of the line that not crosses the vp ar shown. 

All layers including VP settings in the layermanager are thawed and also draw order does not have any effect.

It Seems like a bug to me because when i switch the vp from 3D to 2D wireframe with  shade plot on legacy hidden it is fine to print, but kind of hard to dimension.

Does anyone have a solution or faced this same problem?

Thanks in advance

	The only was to troubleshoot the problem would be to have an actual copy of the drawing.

	This is a Example of the drawing left with 2D wireframe and right 3D Hidden Visual Style. Left you still see de dimensioning and right(if you select with crossing) dimensioning is also there but not visible. uploads/39979/Example_VP-WipeO.dwg Edited by rebellio - 22.Jul.2016 at 14:05
