aniblocks disappear

I have some nice aniblocks going in animate2. I dither with other things for a bit then go back to the animate2 tab. The animation is still working but the blocks are no longer visible. I click, right click, check manuals, nothing. I cant add other aniblocks either (unless I make a new subtrack) so I seem to have activated some mode that is not for aniblocks (no its not keyframe view).
Next I try to recreate the error. I do something along the line that causes the aniblock track to creep upward so I can see HALF an aniblock, as if it has scrolled slightly. Can I find how it has scrolled or scroll it back down? No. It just sits there mocking me, refusing to move. I've added a screengrab.

I'm leaning towards "half an AniBlock being visible" may be caused by adding tracks and then not increasing the AniMate screen space, but I haven't seen that one happen.
No idea about the blocks disappearing, although I have content (in the content library) not showing itself, even if it is present; I know it because it says it's showing files 1-17 of 17, but nothing shows up and if I click inside the File Content pane they do show up. No idea if that is of any help in the AniMate tab, though.
Yes one needs to increase the space for AniMate and/or the timeline every now and then.
Sometimes whether or not one is in full screen mode affects tabs.
Sometimes as one is working back and forth as mentioned, it needs refreshing somehow. I find Content in the Content Library tends to disappear until I click another tab, then return to it. So possibly if you closed the Animate Tab, then reopened it, everything would reappear.
