Can't see the triggers that I created in SQL Server Management Studio 2008

I created a simple trigger on Albums table. But that trigger is not visible in object explorer in programmability in triggers folder. I refreshed that folder as well as restarted the SSMS but still no luck. However i can see that trigger under that table in triggers folder. Is this a feature or a bug?

I am using SQL Server 2008.

If you still can't find it, it is likely because you specified

CREATE TRIGGER X
ON SERVER ALL

Specifying that it is deployed at the server level.

Expand server objects > Triggers

The triggers in Programmability is for database triggers (DDL Triggers). You can view the table triggers (DML Triggers) if you expand the table. For example, you are looking for triggers for table "students" Follow: expand "Tables"=> Expand "students"=> Here you will find DML triggers in Triggers Node.

Collapse the tab of the Database and then refresh(F5) and expand TableName > Triggers> and here are your triggers(That need to be executed first before getting automatically saved.).
