Custom Map Makers

Im using GTKRadiant and recently ive been trying to make columns, curves, etc within the program using the functions mentioned before, however there appears to be an issue, which im not sure is normal? When i do make things with patch meshes, endcaps, etc they dont show up... only their surrounding "selection bounding box" (the reddish one) shows up... when I compile they show up normal and textured though?

maybe You have filtered them?
Menu
View -> Filter

Good thought, ill check when i get home and let you know. Thanks for the input!

Edit- That was it haha... thanks alot man, i think i may have over-complicated things and didnt bother checking that
