We have a drawing that appears to there. The file size seems correct in details, but we cannot view it. We have checked the tabs, and there is only one. We have reset the Zoom in all way possible, but no sign of the drawing. Please help.

Hi ​@DonW,

Thanks for posting in the Lucid Community!

Would you mind trying the following steps so I can take a closer look at the issue you’re experiencing?

  • The document(s) may still be there. Can you double check that you're in the correct account? Sometimes users will use single sign on while signed into a different email account, which can produce errors. I suggest that you make sure you've checked any and all Lucid accounts that might be under your email address(es). 
  • Can you try opening the document in a Chrome Incognito browsing session? This often improves performance by starting a fresh cookie session and disabling your extensions. If you can see your work from the docs list, but it’s gone once you open your document, then check out this Community post (in English)!
  • If you have access to the feature, you can also check the revision history to see if the changes are there. Please see this article for information on how to restore from a previous version.
  • It is also worth noting that saving issues are often related to an unstable internet connection. You may want to look at your internet connection to confirm that this is not a factor.
  • If you have not yet lost the work and your Lucidchart document continuously shows "saving", it is important that you do not close your document, refresh your browser, or restart your computer until your work is saved. To proceed with your work, you can copy the content of your document to another Lucidchart document by following the steps in this article.

If the issue persists, please provide as much of the following information as you can:

  • The time (and time zone) you opened your document to begin editing.
  • The time you finished editing and closed the document.
  • Which edits were not saved.
  • A detailed account of the time frame when you noticed your edits were not saved.
  • A screenshot of the exact issue you are seeing

Thank you for your help and patience!
