setVisible(True) not working in Teamsite 6.7.1

I am setting setVisible to false on load of the dct and changing it to true based on a event handler. This function was working in 6.5 but is not working on 6.7.1. I tried redraw() in vain, any help is appreciated.

do you, by chance, use access rights based on roles ? Since the roles are now flexible, that affects various pieces of code. I had a similar issue that went away when I removed the role based access.

I'm 6.7.1 and it works perfectly for me. Can you post your code on how you set the visible property?.

On Load I am setting the following
IWDatacapture.getItem("/subject_add").setVisible(false);
IWDatacapture.getItem("/parent_question_subject_id").setReadOnly(true);
IWDatacapture.getItem("/child_question_subject_id").setVisible(false);

and on EventHandler :
IWDatacapture.getItem("/subject_add").setVisible(true);
IWDatacapture.getItem("/subject_add").setReadOnly(true);
IWDatacapture.getItem("/parent_question_subject_id").setVisible(true);
IWDatacapture.redraw();

And we just migrated the from 6.5 and didnt configure any roles yet:

Just incase, can you make sure that you are on Datacapture60.dtd and also ensure that you set the "root-container" element's "location" attribute and also your field's location attribure to some id and then refer the field by

IWDatacapture.getItem("root-container-location-id/your-field-id).setVisible(false);

If you some global script code block you might also encounter this issue, I'm not sure if you have some global script. This is filed as bug #69581 and has been fixed in Patch ID 1789. This patch was just released yesterday Feb-26. You may also wanna try this patch if it still doesn't work.
