    I'm relatively new to Unity and it's likely I'm just not doing this right, but the inconsistency between views has me even more puzzled.

    In the scene view, I can see the border around a sprite I just dragged in, but it's not actually being drawn. However, if I click over to the game view, it shows up just fine.

    For a short video, see here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8SdycM9odZ5RFQzLUhOOHlvdFk/view?usp=sharing

    Thoughts? Is there some editor setting I might have flipped by accident and told it not to draw things? I'm following a Unity course where, so far, I've only been using UI elements, so this is my first foray into rendering from worldspace, and if I have something misconfigured, I wouldn't have noticed before.

    Well, that's embarrassing. After totally giving up on this, I came back and looked through the UI for anything and everything that even looks like it would hide things and on a lark..found this:

    I'm guessing closed some eyes at some point. Opening the "Everything" eye brought my sprite back, which..makes sense. Sorry for the false alarm..

    Happened to me too, so don't be embarrased - it was your response here that probably saved me a lot more hair-pulling! So thanks!.
