When I click on that field in that record to generate the custom-field-set-to-other-field dialog, the missing format appears in the display after I click OK. So it's only a minor problem and only mildly troubling. That's in 0.7.38 on Mac OS X 10.6.6. Am I doing something wrong or is that a minor bug?
What this says is that there is a pathway in the code that is not refreshing the GUI data when a format is added. It would help to know what you did between when it was right and when it was wrong. My suspicion is that the problem involves using the formats box in edit metadata, but I am not sure.

Also, handling of formats has changed in the next release. The problem might go away.
