Hey guys!

One of my HDAs no longer shows up in the tab menu at all, even though its 'Menu Entry' shows up as "Digital Asset" in the asset preferences.

When I try to save the asset as a new version via the 'Digital Asset -> Save As' context menu, I eventually get an error print in the python console. (see attached screenshot)

When I open up the containing .hda file, it seems that the offending asset is missing the <xml> block in its creation script that, among other things, contains the <toolSubmenu> property.

Also I discovered that the VHDAIncreaseVersionDialog() class in houdini's assettools.py will call copyToVHDAFile() while passing 'None' for the tabmenu parameter, unlike calls to that function elsewhere.
May this have been the original culprit?

I'm just speculating - however I did increase the version on this asset once.

Does anybody have an idea how to repair my HDA, without ripping out its guts and building it from scratch?
