I’m working on my first project in Perspective, and a simple label is being hard to get along with. I can’t change it’s location, size, or text. It just goes back to the way it was when I dropped it in the root container, what is going on? v8.1.16 ---

I remember another user having a similar issue. I think they solved it by copying JSON, then creating a new view and pasting the JSON back in. I assume the view is corrupt somehow. ---

I think you were right about the view was corrupt. I closed and opened the designer back up and it works as expected now.
