Hi team, Today I installed the new version of Ignition 8.3.9 (b2026082511) along with the Designer. However, I noticed that Perspective is missing from the Designer. Both the Vision and Perspective modules are installed and showing as **ACTIVE** in the Gateway. I also understood that Ignition 8.3 includes the new built-in vector-based image functionality, but I could not find this feature in the Designer either. Did I miss something during the installation, or is Perspective not available/supported in this version? I would appreciate any advice. Thank you! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/d/3/d376835c4dcd153764d7222fec243be29b8a29c1.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/a/4a265fd86c4488cd9561fda9e84d52dcac24402b.png) ---

Are there any errors in the designer console? From memory if there is a failure of jxbrowser the module doesn’t load in the designer at all. ---

As @David_Stone says, if the JxBrowser engine faults on designer startup, Perspective will be missing. Look at the designer's console for likely messages about that. ---

Huh. That's the problem, but I was expecting more information. Can you disable AV or other malware software temporarily? ---

I fixed the issue by renaming the old cache folder and then restarting everything. Thanks to all of you for your help! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/0/e00b44903ddc3589a29e09468b09eb8adf318e08.png)
