Ive had objects(Validtors, Units, Effects, Literally anything in the Data Tab) that Ive deleted one day return the next.
Ive seen, on several occasions, a validator or Effect that I created just not show up when trying to add it to another Object's Effects or Validator fields.
I literally pull the window off to the side and can look at the Data Tab to see the Validator is there, but can't see it in the selection window.
It is normally easily enough solved by exiting and reloading the editor, but its still annoying as *&@% when it happens and interrupts your train of thought. And sometimes a restart doesn't work. In that case I have to make a new object of a completely different Type and then changed to the type I want to get it to show up. In the selection window it still shows its type as what I created it as, not what I changed it to.
Reload data. This can be done by deleting the entry in XML view and switching back to table view. Deleting in XML view (not table view) makes sure all the entry data is deleted. Making a change in XML view, eg deleting an entry, then changing back to table view will force the editor to reparse the XML data catalog which should make sure to flush all currently existing entries.

Is this a known issue or am I going nuts??

ModeratorsTry the repair editor function? Sometimes a clean reinstall fixes some of these issues.
