Sketched curves in WF II??

Good afternoon, All:

Just when I thought I no longer needed a seat of Acad for use as a geometry
calculator...

In WF I training, they made a big deal about the Sketched Curve icon - the
fact that with one pick, you could create a sketched datum curve in your
model. I found this tool very useful as a replacement for Acad when trying
to figure out angles and such. But we've just switched to WF II, M070, and
although I believe I've found the icon for that same function (looks about
the same, but with a blue instead of gold curve), it doesn't behave the
same. I pick the icon, make my sketch, and it looks fine - I can even run
Properties on it and change it's color AND line style - very nice. However,
when I click off of it, it disappears. Is there a way to make this sketch
visible so that I can use it to lay out my design?

BTW - all layers are turned on.

Thanks in advance,

It probably is hidden, try unhide.
