Missing Parameters!

Ignition
1

I opened my project this morning only to find over a dozen errors that were not present yesterday. Come to find out, all of the view's parameters are gone! So, I did the most logical thing, close and reopen the project. Same results.

This is the second or third this has happened since I began working with Perspective in 2022 (?) ish. I think this may be a bug worth addressing.

EDIT:
I replaced the params, set them to NOT persistent, saved, closed, opened and they are gone again. Replaced them once again, this time left as persistent, saved, closed, reopened and they are still there. Isn't persistent supposed to be just to persist, or not, the value of a parameter or property?

Disclaimer: I'm only speaking from what I observed, not from any place of inside knowledge. So this is all speculation, not absolute truth.

If they're not persistent they just don't exist until they get a value. If they have a binding, it gives them a value, so they stay around.

I think you can try to put a binding on a prop, disable the binding, then make disable its persistence.
Close the view, reopen it, the prop is gone. Re-add a prop with the same name, and you'll see it still has the disabled binding.
