New Edge Type Header in Add Edge Window

[javadragon]

I see when I create an edge that I am able to choose "- New Tag -" for the "Type of Edge". I fill in the tag unique, name and abbreviation and all seems good. My custom data files saves and I am able to open Savage Worlds in Hero Lab.

However, when I go to test my new edge by clicking "Add New Edge", it does not have a header for my new edge type in the "Add an Edge" window. It seems like it groups my new edges together and it looks like they are grouped alphabetically by edge type (my custom edge type was Geographical and my new edges appear above "- Leadership Edges -" and at the bottom of "- Combat Edges"). I expected to see a header "- Geographical Edges -" to be in this window.

Should this not have created a new header for my new edge type?

I am attaching a screen shot of my "Add an Edge" window.

Arguably that would work, but some things have set tags and don't recognize others. Edges may well be one of those, but I don't know for certain. I know that Equipment, for example, does have that issue and you need to use the main categories (although you can rename the dividing group name that shows up on printouts) only or they just group up in a user-defined section by themselves. Maybe one of the LWD guys could comment if this is also the case for Edges and/or Hindrances, too.

Headers are not automatically created when you create a new tag group. Find one of the existing headers using "New (Copy)" and use that as a base to create the new header.

Thank you very much Mathias. That worked perfectly. I never noticed those before in the New (Copy) list. The only thing that I have to figure out is why the Copy does not like the dashes before and after the edge group name. When I tried to change the Name field it tells that there are invalid characters and it turns the dashes into "?". However, two normal dashes works almost as good.
