Persistent coordinate systems

Hi we're running NX6.0 and one of the fellas here is having a problem hiding the coordinate system on a print. We've tried the typical show/hide and even turned off layer 200 which we place all our coordinate systems on. This print is a large piping drawing and really slow and painful on the hardware. Is there anything we're missing?

Are you using the master model method (model and drawing are in separate files)? If so, remove the CSYS from the reference set used in the drawing. If not, you can use the 'visible in view' command to make layer 200 invisible in the drawing views.
 
I assume that somehow the coordinate system that you are seeing somehow got saved.
You will need to determine if the CSYS is in the model or drawing.

I'm not sure what happened. The drawing was fine and something was changed since the last modification and the show/hide stopped working. Yes we use the master model method. Our parts are built with the csys in layer 200. We were able to in assembly mode select all the oddball csys and "move to layer". Not exactly sure how this was changed since the last time someone was in the file. But we are fixed once again. Thanks for everyone's input.
