WF4 Datum display

I have changed an axis feature to a GTOL datum and attached it to a diameter dimension in the part.

In the past (WF2), this would automatically show up in the drawing. In WF4, I can't get it to show up at all. No amount of show/erase, redraw, unblank layers, etc will get it to show. I even tried getting out of Pro/E & restarting it, no love. What is the trick to getting a GTOL datum to appear in WF4?

I use the Show / Erase for an Axis and View to get the Axis Datum to show.

Eventhough it's a Datum you need to use the Axis. No logic in that one

Don't get the two icons confused either. The one on the show/erase dialog is only for datum planes not all set datum types.
