Can't use Cab Editor for GP20

I tried to use cab editor for GP20_BN_2054.eng in BLW_GP20_BN2. I open GP20Unit_LN.cvf and main image shows but controls do not show.

I was able to fix this by changing

EngineData ( BLW_GP20_ATSF )

to

EngineData ( GP20_BN_2054 )

It may work for you because you have BLW_GP20_ATSF.eng in your installation of MSTS. Try using Train Store to store everything except for GP20_BN_2054.eng and see if you can edit the cab using Cab Editor.

I just try with only BN2 and BN1 folder in MSTS and all work in MSTS cab editor

i work all time with a empty MSTS trainset

I find that when the engine specified in EngineData is not available you can see the cab as shown in your picture. But the control properties are not available as shown by this picture.

Which I have tried but failed to attach.

With the control selected when you click Cab Elements then Properties do you get a dialog that appears like https://www.flickr.com/photos/30168856@N00/16330474932/ with text in Control and Control type?

Yes you are right, blank in control box but type is there

i don't see that because i not work with Cab editor

when i build a cab i work always with wordpad

i will take care next pack about that

Thanks
