Graphics Tab Disappear in Part Information Manager

Hi All,

For unknown reasons, the graphics tab in my Part Information Manager of DesignEntry HDL disappeared. I couldn't enable it from other settings after I tried to explore other settings I could try.

The version I'm using is Allegro 17.4. This graphic tab works normally before, it just disappear in recent days. I tried to restart my software and it still cannot pop up.

Does any one have this issue before? 

Highly appreciated if any suggestion!

    This could be because of missing Graphics tab information in the Details_Tab_Order directive.

    Open the <project>.cpm, available in the project directory, in notepad and look for  Details_Tab_Order directive. See if there's a 'Graphics' value present. If not, try adding 'Graphics', save the cpm file and relaunch DE-HDL.
