  Figured it out.  I was using a toggle variable and had menu 'Appear type' set to manual.  I changed it to 'During Gameplay'.

  Hi Chris:)
  I have the same issue. When I resume the game, the inventory button (along with other menus that I have in my game) disappears from the scene. All Back buttons in the Pause menu are set to Crossfade (I think this is the case). Sure I can set Appear Type to During Gameplay for my inventory menu and all other menus in my game but the thing is that at some point of my game I want to hide different menus with action Menu: Turn On/Off Menu.

  But this action is not working if I will setup Appear Type to During Gameplay.
  Any idea of how this can be fixed?

  Two ways:

  1. A Menu with an Appear type of During Gameplay can be hidden from view by locking it with the Menu: Change state Action. A locked Menu will not display even if its Appear Type condition is met.
  2. Replace the Crossfades with ActionLists that use series of Menu: Change state Actions to turn on/off exactly which Menus you want to affect.

  Actually, I did both before posting this here but thought that there is another way. Thank you Chris. I think the first one is "less heavy" because telling the truth I want to get rid of a big amount of actionlists for pause menu buttons. What do you think is a more practical way?

  Through scripting, you could hook into the OnExitGameState custom event to manually turn the Menu back on when the game comes out of Pause mode:

  using UnityEngine;
  using AC;
  
  public class EnableMenuExample : MonoBehaviour
  {
  
      private void OnEnable ()
      {
          EventManager.OnExitGameState += ExitGameState;
      }
  
  
      private void OnDisable ()
      {
          EventManager.OnExitGameState -= ExitGameState;
      }
  
  
      private void ExitGameState (GameState _gameState)
      {
          if (_gameState == GameState.Paused)
          {
              PlayerMenus.GetMenuWithName ("MyInventoryMenuName").TurnOn ();
          }
      }
  
  }
