Default AC3D 8.0.80 / X-Plane 3.3.0b3 - DataRef and Commands

I have installed the X-Plane 3.3.0b3 plugin in AC3D 8.0.80. To be certain I'm doing the right thing, I mean the following:

1. Opened the application folder using "Show Package Contents".
2. Placed XPlaneSupport.tcl and XPlaneSupportMac.p in the plugins folder.
3. Placed copies of X-Plane 10.51 Commands.txt and DataRefs.txt in the plugins folder.

The operating system is Mac OS 10.11.6 (15G1421)

The Commands.txt and DataRefs.txt are unmodified, as downloaded from Laminar Research.

The plug-in works well and I am able to preview all the animations of models created in AC3D 7, but the list of datarefs and commands are not available using the pulldowns in X-Plane Object Properties. I have tried deleting the contents of the field completely and clicking on the pulldown arrow, and nothing happens.

The plug-in 3.3.0b1 works perfectly in AC3D 7.5.02, the list appearing immediately after clicking the pulldown arrow.

I'm quite happy for this to be finger trouble on my part, but I believe I've installed it correctly.

Yours,
Guy.
