Are page configurations inheritable in perspective projects?

Page configuration is all handled by a single resource - so, if you have _ever_ overridden it in a child project, you won’t go back to using the parent’s configuration unless you delete the resource on the child…which we don’t have any UI to do in the designer. You _can_ delete the resource folder on disk (`gateway-install-path/data/projects/your-project-name/com.inductiveautomation.perspective/page-config/`) and your project should automatically start using the parent’s configuration.

Thanks. Are Session Custom parameters inheritable?

Custom props are contained in the `session-props/` singleton, right next door to the `page-config/` resource - the `props.json` file will have a `custom` entry.

I just ran into this issue where page configurations are not being inherited.  
@paul-griffith is this still the case where we have to delete the project resource folder in order to inherit page configurations?

Yes, unfortunately.
