I have experienced the same where a small curve is missing. Also I have had the exact opposite problem. I can't get rid of some "hidden" lines from an assembly drawing. I had to resort to using white out on the printout. Are these two functions possibly related?
In my case there is adifference of 0.014mm between the OD and ID of the parts and the curve on the LH side is part of the main wire as a Protrusion with trajectory and sketched section.
Did I miss something? I have a component clearance of 0.014mm meaning that dr_gallup's suggested cause does not seem to be applicable in this case. Is there any other possible cause?
Nothing missed. There just aren't any other blanket offerings.
Guesswork from here on out and looking at a pic isn't going to help.
That's the kind of thing you have to monkey-with-football it thru.
Things I'd look at ...
Accuracy.
Geom chks.
Hide a comp.
Try a general view vs. the broken view.
1. I have had a similar problem and it turned out that the graphics card I had at the time (6/7 years ago now) was basically underspec'd and with large/complex assembly drawings, lines appeared and disappeared randomly.
2.One way I have found to try and debug the issue (and I know this is time consuming) was to create a simp rep (that you use as your drawing view) and add/subtract features/components until you find which one is the problem.
