Ah... could you please rephrase all that. I am not quite sure what you said.

Something about you created a unit using the collection of another with Tahoe. But you placed two collections of the same name in the folder and only one appears.

Ok I think thats what you meant to say. If so then hold shift and double click on Fear. This will let you see some other files... like collections. Select the collect you mentioned and right click copy it with a different name. Then close Fear and delete the one you just copied since there is no point for two files. Now you should see the original and your copy.

If you are not sure of the English you can also write the message in French - all who speak English understand some French because the two share many words.

"Occult"? I think you mean "hidden". You used a machine translator? :)

Fear can not edit collections, and does not display collection tags. Fear can only place collections into a plugin. I'm not quite sure what problem you're having with Fear. If you write in French too there are some people here who speak that.

Did you copy the original collection *while in Fear*?

If not, you might have two distinct tag filenames (i.e. when looking at them in Windows Explorer) but as far as Fear is concerned, they both have the same tag id (the four-character tag identifier).

I would suggest:

(1) Open Fear while holding down the shift key - this will let you see the Collections tags - you may have already done this.

(2) Using Fear: Copy the collection to a new name, like "Illusionist2" or whatever you like.

(3) Now edit Illusionist2 with Tahoe.

Hope that helps.

Occult does mean hidden from view, but more in the sense of "inscrutable" and generally in the context of "supernatural", "mysterious", or "secret". It is also used to mean "hidden from view" in astronomy and medicine.

It's just never used in place of "hidden" in standard conversation. :)
