Cannot see OnExit Trigger in properties

I would like to add a new trigger in OnExit. I have used onExit before in this queue, there are some settings inside and they also works, but the problem is that I cannot add new trigger if I cannot see it.

I'd like to ask if there's any way or use code to add a new trigger until I could update Flexsim. I have asked this question before in https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/108903/flexscript-exception-cannot-add-a-new-label.html
But due to the software is maintained by company, I couldn't update myself.

Software Version:

FlexSim 21.2.0

triggers

v1.mp4 (3.5 MiB)

Try checking the trigger after opening the default workspace. This option is available under the view button.

@Fiona C I believe this is a bug that has been fixed in 21.2.3 or later. Update to the latest bug fix release and this will be fixed.

By your description the trigger exists but is simply not shown in the properties window?

Have you tried to close and reopen the properties window ("View" -> "Properties" in top bar)? The trigger may also appear in the "Quicker Properties" you can open with a double click on the object.

If that doesn't work you should still be able to add code directly to the "exittrigger" node in the objects variables tree. You could add the function you want to a different trigger and copy the relevant code from it.

@Felix Möhlmann Thanks you for reply. I'll try to directly write in the "exittrigger" node. I have tried double clicking on the object and reopen the default workspace, these 2 methods couldn't help. This is also not first time that triggers cannot show in the properties window.
