Default Clip gain value not showing

For some reason the clip gain value is not visible for a couple of clips only. I have the fader icon but not the value in dB. Any idea ?

Do you have clip gain bypassed for those clips? Right-click a clip, select Clip gain and check if Unbypass Clip Gain is an option.

No, the gain is not bypassed.
I checked the shortcuts thinking I might have hit a combination of keys by accident but I could not find anything.

Did you coalesce or convert volume automation into Clip Gain, or vice versa? That will do it, and place a little triangle delta triangle on the left when you click and hold the Clip Gain fader…

I'd like to know why this is happening too…Just haven't had the time to dig up the manual on it…

If Clip gain isn't at max/min, or bypassed for that clip, I don't know what's going on. If you duplicate that track, and include Active playlist - does the clip gain line re-appear for the clips in question?

Coalescing clip gain to volume automation, or vice versa, are PT HD and PT w/CPT features. Don't know if that's what Mack has.

It looks like this when a clip has a CG breakpoint. It can happen accidentally when you are not properly selecting them.

I have more on that. When I clic on the fader icon on the clip, it does not display the absolute value in dB but the delta dB. So that's probably the trick here: is there a way to display the relative rather than the absolute gain ?

Same problem for me.
Protools 10.3.9 (non-HD) on Win7.
The clip gain numeric value is not showing on clips, even after creating a new session. Also tried to reinstall PT.

Bump.

I also have this issue with PT 11. I have found that I can get the info to re-appear by either clearing the clip gain or rendering it.

However, it not being visible at all times (with the view > clip gain info enabled) is definitely a bug and should be addressed.

How should I go ahead and submit a bug report? Mods?
