Action Visibility in Dynamic Blocks

[rdaniel]

Can't find my actions in a dynamic block. Know that they are there as you can stretch the block, but the actions are not visible in the block editor. Tried hitting the show all actions button, but still nothing. Anybody else run into this?

Working in ACA 2010. Block was created in 2008.

are there visibility states in the block?

[rdaniel]

Yes there are.

[Chris.N]

Yes there are.

what happens when you click the icon that makes all content for all vis states visible in the Block Editor?

[rdaniel]

It shows the objects for other states (faded), but still doesn't show the actions.

See attached file. Thanks for taking a look.

shoot. I don't think i'll be much help here. I'm running 2010 and all parameters and actions are just "there".

did you try regen? sometimes that is needed to kick the dynamic items when all else fails.

[rdaniel]

Yeah, nothing. Not sure what the deal is.

Yeah, nothing. Not sure what the deal is.

Try turning off hardware acceleration for the video card? Or updating your video card driver.

I don't think that is it as the problem is happening on multiple machines. It is also happening within multiple releases of the software, 2008 & 2010. Could this have anything to do with actions being renamed?

You could try changing the BACTIONBARMODE system variable to 0. The Action bars will be disabled, but you would be able to see the actions again. This is a registry setting so it would need to be changed on all machines.
