Shape File shows in TOC but not on map

BryanKardisco

I currently have an ArcToc Control and an ArcMap Control.  Where I'm attempting to create a shapefile , have it saved (to disk) , display on the Table-Of-Contents and also on the Map.

Currently, the Line/Polyline/Polygon/Ellipse all are created as proper shape files. They are also added to my TOC Control and show the name - the linestyle and I can properly view the properties (thickness/color/etc).  However, they do not show up on the map initially.

If I go to the TOC and change the line thickness from the default (1) to any higher number it shows.If I change the line style from solid to Dashes , zoom in and zoom out it also shows.

Any idea why this is happening?

Try invalidating the spatial index.

Here is another doc that goes into more detail on working with indexes
