Alternate favored class bonuses issue in Hero Lab

Hi there,

I've got a issue with Hero Lab.

My player is a wizard elf and want to choose the alternate favored class bonus which is:
"Select one arcane school power at 1st level that is normally usable a number of times per day equal to 3 + the wizard's Intelligence modifier. The wizard adds +½ to the number of uses per day of that arcane school power. PRG:APG"

This doesn't appear in my system although we checked everything in the book list of configure hero select choices (advanced player guide and race guide that I bought)

I wanted to create this with the Editor but cant figure out how it works.

Any help?
thx
 
I just tried this, and I see "+1/2 power use/day (...)" appear in the choices for list of favoured bonuses. It is made available by enabling Advanced Player Guide or Advanced Race Guide, as you suspected.

I tested this merely creating a character with Wizard Class, Elf race, and 15 INT.

Yeah it's the same here, but in the "+1/2 power use/day (...)", the thing is:
there's no arcane school to select, it's stuck with the "hand of apprentice" su power which has nothing to do with this favored class bonus I'm looking for.
Then, I guess I should click on "customize favored class options" to select other choices. There's only that thing "elf wizard" and cant add any arcane school as described in the rules. So, my question stays: How can I add this alternate favored class bonus to my character in Hero lab and choose the arcane school of evocation for example??

I added the wizard class, chose elf as my race, selected Evocation as my specialized school, and then went back and selected this favored class bonus, and in the customize list, Force Missile is available in the drop-down menu - it's actually the only selection available in that list.

Hand of the Apprentice is a power for Universal (i.e. non-specialized) wizards. That suggests you haven't yet selected the specialization school for that wizard yet. So HL is showing you the only power that qualifies for the FCB. You'll need to go to the Wizard tab for that character and pick your specialized school; after that the FCB selector should update accordingly.
