I have created multiple task in my system. but I can only se the Motion task in the production window, program editor and so on.  
I have this problem in all systems from RW 6.0 and up.  
In Robotstudio It looks normal I I can se the program running. But It’s not easy to debut.

Can anyone tell me, If I’m missing a flag or somthing someware or is it a bug in RW 6.0+?

Semi-static and static tasks do not appear in the production window, are your tasks set to normal?

In teach, can you switch to the other task in the program editor window?

There’s option in Configuration-\>Controller-\>Task-\>“TaskName”-\>Hidden. If YES is marked then you’ll have to change it.

Hmm YES is not marked, but the behavior, would indicate, that it is. Could there be a bug, that makes the system think is is marked, when it is not?

Hi [svoldgaard](https://forums.robotstudio.com/profile/svoldgaard),

It can have some issues with the Techpendant; You should reset and load configuration file again for TP or try to use another one.

Good luck, thanks!
