You need to use the "Invoke" command (middle of the left hand column, looks
like four AND gates) to display the other connections. It's useful for
things like adding an individual gate to a schmatic instead of having to
route all the traces back to a multi gate package. Some library parts use it
for the power connections in an effort to simplify the look of a schematic.
That way you can have a group of chip power connections and bypass caps and
such together in the corner of the page instead of having power and ground
lines running every where.
