Tab Control Pages not Changing

I have an application that has been running for about 2 years now. It have an HMI where I am using a Tab Control to manage the interface of different sections like manual operation, automatic operation, configuration, etc. Some of this tabs are hidden, coming visible when a Boolean button is pressed in one of the visible tabs and hidden it back in the same way. I am doing this using the page visible property node. Recently, an improvement was done on the machine requiring the modification of the control software. My problem is that after the modification, everything run fine in the development computer, but once the HMI is deployed to the Touch Panel, the tab change of the hidden tabs do not work. I can change among the visible tabs and all the controls and indicators work fine, but I can not bring up the hidden tabs. I press the Boolean button that is suppose to make the tab visible and nothing happen. Even when I see the Boolean changing on and off through Distribute System Manager. Any help or idea is more than welcome. I am thinking that maybe is a configuration problem, but I can not figure it out.

That's interesting... From what I understand, you get the references from the pages using a property node for the tab control, and then use a page property node with "Page Visible" property. Have you tried any of the other page properties to see if they work? Maybe try writing the "Page Enabled State" or "Page Label" to see if those work or not as well.
