Zone parameter names not in sync with values

Has anyone ever seen this? The only thing I've done that is out-of-the-ordinary is assign the Zone Name a values list -- maybe AC doesn't like that? Or perhaps the Object is somehow corrupt?

Hello,

We've had similar problems when changing the zone object to another on the run -> some of the already placed zones do not show the new parameters without some gymnastics/refreshing by hand.

Strangely we also have value scripted zone names in the new version
Well, I created a new Zone Object from scratch and copied the script from the 'corrupted' one, and now everything seems to be OK (unfortunately, the new part no longer has the same GUID). What's also odd is the script was apparently using the 'switched' parameter values and I was getting various error messages (e.g. "string type expression required") when there was no apparent error to the script.
