That's most unusual. When I switched to the regular Alfaerie set, this
didn't happen, and when I used "Alfaerie: Many" on Game Courier, this
didn't happen. I replaced some pieces in the setup with alternates, and I
found that they changed color (as opposed to the pieces rotating position).
When I added some irregularly colored pieces, they disappeared. Reversing
the cases of the letters in their labels did not get them to reappear. So
it doesn't appear to be a simple matter of switching the cases. In case it
was converting everything in a label to one case, I made one lower case
label mixed case, and it disappeared. This is a mystery so far. I'll have
to look at the code and do some debugging.
