Status dots and bars disappear

Status dots often do not show up on a token when selected until the token is moved. Also, the bars sometimes disappear until the token is moved. I am using chrome on windows 7 Thanks
Keith, Hey there! Is this happening all the time? Or specifically when you are moving tokens between layers?
I have the same effect as Keith -- status bars and dots do not appear until token is moved. Status bars and dots did not appear at all while on the GM layer, where I created them. They appeared once I moved the tokens to the Token layer and then moved the tokens. I did not try to add or move tokens on the Map layer. (Using Chrome, Win7)

Moving tokens between layers doesn't seem to make a difference. I had a monster that got bloodied. I set the red status marker and it didn't show for anyone. As soon as I started to move the token on it's round the dot appeared for me. As soon as I released the token and it moved for my players the dot appeared. This happened when I changed the value of a status bar as well. The bar disappeared when the values was changed, then returned when I moved the token. The bar shows that the dot is selected. It just doesn't show. It is almost like the token is not re-rendering after the change.
I am seeing the same thing but it specifically happens if a token starts at the DM layer. It won't show markers, status bars, or aura's until you do two things. First move the token to the object and tokens layer and then physically move it at least one square. Then suddenly everything pops into view. Note if you move the token back to the DM layer everything is removed again. AKA status bars, markers, and aura's all disappear. I'm on Windows 7 64 bit running Firefox 15.0.1
Wow, this took forever to track down, sorry. But it's fixed in the next update :-)

Thanks, Riley. What did it turn out to be?
A function wasn't getting called when the layer changed for players.

What a coincidence. I spend 2 hours tracking down an error in a program at work on Friday. Turned out that I had written a new function, but commented out the call to said function during some testing and forgot. Good times, My Friend.
Yeah I had it when the NPC had gotten injured that suddenly the bar vanished or if I put a red X on it the players could see the X but I as the GM saw nothing unless I made the token dance around...lol
