As the title suggests, if your AP does not reach beyond the orbit of a planet you are trying to have an encounter with, or if you are trying to pass behind the planet, the UI will not show the encounter lines. For example, if a moon is orbiting a planet at 1,000,000 km, and you want to approach the planet with an orbit with an AP of 999,999  the UI will not recognize that you will actually pass through the sphere of influence of the moon until you are nearly passing into the sphere of influence of the moon. 

To recreate, plot a maneuver node to make an encounter with the Mun. You will notice that the encounter lines will only show if your AP crosses beyond the orbit of the mun. if it drops below the orbit of the mun, the encounter lines will disappear. However, if you actually proceed on the course, you will still end up on an encounter with the mun.

Having apoapsis slightly below the Mun's orbit shows no encounter

Time warping to apoapsis suddenly reveals there actually is an encounter

Going back and raising apoapsis ever so slightly above the Mun's orbit reveals the encounter

This is most noticeable near Jool while avoiding or targeting the moons.
