Disappearing dimensions

All,
We have had several users that started experiencing an issue with their dimensions not showing up in their models when the edit/edit definition features. The witness and extension lines show up, but no dimensions. Another user from this same group reports that they have where their dimensions show up, but they're scattered all over the place, not near the witness lines are.
Also we've experienced that sometimes when we call up a drawing our Section Arrows and Datum References are huge. They just about cover the entire drawing.

We found out that if we exit and go back in this usually fix both of these issues.

Is anybody else, using Wildfire 5 M080, experienced these particular issues? We can't reproduce it using any particular steps it only appears after a certain length of time.

Carpe Diem,
"Happiness equals reality minus expectations"

I'm using WF5.0/creo1.0 thingy and I have to edit the attachment of several "purple" dimensions. This I can do successfully but when I leave the edit dim command, the dimension disappears. I can see it in the drawing tree and there I can "erase"/"unerase and the dimension returns. Has anyone else had this and is there a better workaround?

I must admit that the WF5.0 drawing package is no fun for me!
