Manual Dive Plane gauges not appearing.

o7 folks!

As I improve with TWoS, I'm using more and more of its features; in this case, the specialized operations performed by the Officers (bottom of the screen). One I am having trouble with is the use of the manual dive plane gauges, under ol' Josef's ugly mug.
(Great guy and a fantastic Chief; it's just that with a face like that, when we take the crew photo, we give HIM the camera. Anyway...)

For whatever reason, when I bring up 'Dive Plane Controls' under Josef's hideous visage and click 'manual', nothing happens. The button blinks, but no gauge appears and the planes do not move out of automatic setting. In other words, I can't under any circumstance manually zero the planes, which I would dearly love to do - on a crash dive they're acting more like brakes than control surfaces; a situation my British skimmer friends up there are quite happily taking advantage of.

I'm guessing that either the gauges didn't get installed, or something needs to be configured to allow them to be selected. I've tried reinstalling, but with the same result.

Does anybody have any idea why I am not able to select manual dive planes? I'd be grateful.

Cheers!
