Dave, We had a similar problem. It turned out that there was a bug in 2001A such that whenever you clicked on the birds-eye-view icon, Rose would resize the text boxes around your classes (the box that contains the class name) and make them wide - something on the order of the width of the original diagram. Each time you clicked the icon, the text boxes got bigger. After several clicks, the actual meaningful parts of the diagram would appear as something very small in the upper left hand corner of a very large blank pallet. Support gave us a patch that fixed the underlying problem. To see if this is what is really going on, view your diagram with shrink to fit then select all on the diagram. You will see the actual geometry of the text boxes drawn with dashed lines. If they are too big, and this will be easy to spot, you will have to resize manually (we actually wrote a quick rose script because there were too many) to get the thing back to reality. The patch doesn't fix anything already there it just prevents them from growing when you hit the icon.
Hope this helps. Regards, John ========== John R.

Try pressing Ctrl-A to select all while viewing the diagram, and the hidden element might be exposed by its selection corners. Worked for me...
