I am trying to make an exploded view drawing. While I am creating my assembly I put axis in each of the cylindrical parts to make them easy to mate and make my exploded view lines. After this is done and I am making my lines I click on the axis to get simple straight part to part lines. When I do this though the exploded view lines go way past the part. They do not stop at the part like they are supposed to do. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The way the exploded lines are placed has to do with which end of the axis you click on. When you select the axis, Pro|E immediately assumes that you want the end that is closest to where you clicked (NOT closest to the screen) and will extend your exploded line from there. If this happens to be the opposite end of the axis from where you intended to have the line end, then Pro|E/Creo will extend the line out in the wrong direction before turning back and extending down to your other anchor point.
