Text not visible in Illustrator 2022

I am trying to enter text using the type tool on a dedicated layer that is visible.

I have increased font size and set text colour

I have tried resetting preferences

I have ensured system is set to show edges.

What else can I try?

Duncan,

Copying the artwork into a new document worked over here,

I believe it may be a new random hit ~~bug~~, sorry, feature in 26/2022.

Thanks all, the issue has now disappeared but thanks for the suggestions

Are you an M1 Mac user by any chance? The instances of disappearing objects I've seen seem to have that in common so far.

Duncan,

What happens if you create a new corresponding document and copy the artwork into that?

Can you show a screenshot with the text selected and layers/appearance panels visible?

I can see the text if I switch to outline view
