Adding Poisons

Is there a secret to adding poisons to hero lab and having them show up in the gear tab on the character? I thought I pretty much had it down but all of a sudden I can't add any poisons. They'll go in to the editor but never show in the equipment gear tab.
 
basically going to the gear tab in the editor, giving it a name and ID, using the drop down for equipment type poison. then adding a tag for PoisonType contact, injury and so on. So I end up with 2 tags on the poison. GearType gtPoison and PoisonType Contact, then save and test. I basically just copied an existing poison and changed the name and PoisonType tag.
 
well poop if I do a copy and don't try to enter the poison manually, it shows up. Not sure why though or what the difference is.

Edit: Not sure why I didn't try this to start with.
 
Yeah if something I'm entering has anything similar already in, I almost always make a copy and modify it from there. 9/10 you can look at the tags/fields of an existing thing and see what's missing in your new one. The other 1/10 times there may be a piece of code that is copied but doesn't show up in the editor.

But for the most part, copying an existing thing is your best route.
