It’s likely you are encountering some execution errors in the IDE scripts. Try 
setting gREVDevelopment to true and see if you get any details to report. We 
know there are a number of issues with the project browser keeping track of 
objects which is why I recently wrote an object repository library in LCB. We 
haven’t had a chance to update the PB to use it yet though.

Cheers
