object gets invisible...why?

[theflatlander]

I have created a poly cylinder and given it a deform lattice. When I then select the lattice, the poly cylinder become invisible and the only way to select it is from the outliner or hypergraph!

why does this happen and how can I fix it?

please help me!

Check the script editor to see if it shows any kind of error. There may be some type of input already on the cylinder causing problems with the lattice.

this is all the script editor says, and it doesn´t tell me anything;

select -r ffd1Lattice ;
select -r pCylinder2 ;
select -cl ;
select -r pCylinder2 ;
