Possible Hidden Object bug in LV 2011?

In the series "LV 2011 never stops surprising me", here is a quick note.

 

In the diagram below, the For Loop index indicator is hidden.

So I go the Error List window and check "Show Warnings". And bingo, it shows an hidden object:

Actually, it shows two, and none is the one I am looking for. Moreover, none of the objects is actually hidden:

The Index Array is just above the Add function...

 

The Loop index is in fact below the While Loop, so moving it to the side, I was able to find it.

But obviously something is wrong with that Error List functionality...

I am attaching the VI if somebody wants to take a look.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.  I will do some checking on this and see if this is indeed a bug in 2011.  If so, I will post the CAR number once it is filed.

I apologize for not getting back to you sooner on this issue.  I took your code and was able to reproduce the behavior you experienced and have filed a corrective action request (CAR) about the issue.  The CAR number is 317480 if you would like to follow it and see if it is fixed in a patch or later version of LabVIEW.  If you have any more problems with this issue or need further assistance, please let me know.
