Never hesitate in asking for help or reporting some problem! Open 
communications is fundamental for us. Each of us will use Cuis in 
different ways and will find different issues or areas to improve. By 
getting all those experiences together we can build something that is 
idiosyncratic and useful for more people!

Thanks for providing all the pieces and details. In this particular 
case, most likely the problem is that in the last changesets I restarted 
the Morphic process, and this means that the latter part of your script 
will not be run.

Please try this:
- Start Cuis
- Install new updates
- Save and exit

Now try again. I believe it will work as usual (or please report back).

This issue will get solved for you when I save new, updated Cuis images, 
that already include all the change sets. I can do this later today.

I think you'd not need to modify your script, if my intuition is correct 
here. Please tell how it goes.

Thanks!
