Each block reference is on a layer (e.g. layer "MyLayer"). Each entity that is part of the block is also on a layer (e.g. layers "0", "MyOtherLayer", etc.). Both the layer of the block reference and the layer of the entity in the block must be visible for an entity to be visible.

If you cannot solve your problem, please do attach your drawing file (see forum rules above).
