light table stopped working HELP

Hi all, I am new to the forums. I started using TV paint a couple of weeks ago to work on my short. I have gotten quite comfortable using it, however I have now run into a problem which I can not find a solution for which is extremely frustrating because I can not continue the work until I solve it somehow.

Out of nowhere the light table function (onion skinning) stopped working (in the midst of working on a sequence). The obvious things i have checked; The light table button in the layer panel is toggled and in the light table panel the frame numbers I want to display are toggled (I have tried every number) Also the colorization is not similar to the background color which is white and the colors red and green. It can not be the layer because i have tried the other ones as well plus it was working before.

I have been looking and trying things, trying to solve this all day but I can not get it back to work, also it is not just on this project file, it goes for all my other files (or new ones) as well.

Are there possibly any other options/functions that affect the light table that I maybe switched on or off? Can someone PLEASE help me? Thanks!!

Hi ZigOtto,
Wow I can not thank you enough!!! Frame 0 was indeed toggled off! I had used the activate/unactivate all option before but appearently it does not affect frame 0.
My god I thought it had to be something really stupid that I was overlooking, but I spent all day yesterday trying to find it.

Now I can continue working on my project... THANKS!
