Your image didn't post. Is your camera moving? Did you set the dicing camera under geometry and shading?

I found the issue. I found the solution by downloading the character switching file and comparing how it was built:
https://www.sidefx.com/contentlibrary/character-switching/ [www.sidefx.com]
in the rigging with apex tutorial when he creates the guide properties, he gives the attribute the wrong name. He puts in "parms". In the character switching file the attribute name is "properties" and not "parms".
If I update the name to be "properties" it starts working.
edit: I found in the docs where it says to use "properties" too.
