Unable to do 'Double Pass Thru'

In the Edit Sequence [Graphics] mode, I notice that when I select the call "Double Pass Thru" from either the "select call" list or type it into the box, it appears in text as being selected, but is not reflected in graphics, (dancer icons do not move) I was able to get around this by entering "once removed pass thru" which moves the dancer icons and allows completion of the sequence.

Is there a way I can correct this, perhaps by renaming the call, any suggestions?

Check the following:

From the CSDS main menu, select 'Systems | Settings...'. Click on the 'Call execution' tab, and make sure that 'Activate all dancers after each time' is CHECKED, and that 'Try Center 4' is NOT CHECKED.

From the CSDS main menu, select 'Sequence | Edit Sequence [Graphics]'. Go to the 'Flags' menu, and make sure that nothing under this menu has a checkmark next to it.

From the CSDS main menu, select 'Parse Database | Edit Parse Database'. Go to the 'Find' menu and select 'Text String'. Enter 'DOUBLE PASS THRU' into the edit box then press the OK button. The program will search the parse database for 'DOUBLE PASS THRU' and display the first match. Press the F3 button as necessary to find the entry in which the text only consists of 'DOUBLE PASS THRU'. Verify that the corresponding handle list is '435'. If the handle list consists of some other number(s), then edit the list to say '435'. If there is no entry for 'DOUBLE PASS THRU 435', then add it.

From the CSDS main menu, select 'Snapshot | View a record'. Go to the 'Find' menu, and select 'Find a record'. In the 'Exact match' tab, enter 'DOUBLE PASS THRU'. Now press the OK button. The program will search the snapshot database for an exact match on 'DOUBLE PASS THRU'. Press the F3 button as necessary to find the entry for DOUBLE PASS THRU that starts from a Single Starting Double Pass Thru formation (shown in the upper L-H corner). If found and the record is marked as deleted, then press Ctrl+D to undelete it; if not found, then you need to add a corresponding snapshot record (this is most easily done via Edit Sequence [Graphics]. Select (or create) a Two-Couple sequence database. Set up a Single Starting Double Pass Thru formation, enter the call 'DOUBLE PASS THRU', and add the record from 'Call not found, add it?' screen).
