16 CCRII mega pixel tree prop has little x's in sequencer

[GOTOTHIS]

I have a 16 string CCRII mega tree kit. I set up the prop and in some songs the prop looks good in the sequencer and I can easily add motion effects. In other songs the prop has x's or hash marks across the entire channel song length. I can't do anything. It has a red circle with slash through it when I try to program. Instead of a pencil of other interactive icon. I also notice the little tree shaped icon is not on the left side of the prop. On my other songs, it is there.
