Hello all, I hope you can help me out! I am new to the Ignition Community, installed the launcher and face the following issue: The Perspective Panel is not showing up. I checked the forum and already found two similar posts: [Perspective Panels Not Visible - Ignition Early Access - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/perspective-panels-not-visible/30442) [Perspective components and property editor panel missing - Ignition - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/perspective-components-and-property-editor-panel-missing/31503) I followed the mentioned tips from those posts, however, nothing helped so far. I went to the .ignition folder, deleted the .layout file and also checked if the settings for hidden features (there are non, box is not checked). Any other ideas? Thanks in advance Markus ---

Could you maybe attach a few screenshots of the problem you're facing? Are specific Perspective panels not showing up (like Perspective Components panel for example), or are you just not able to see Perspective at all? ---

Hello Fran, yes, sure, this is what the structure looks like. My colleagues do see the perspective panel in here: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/6/962d99ddf9b2ee8e7cf450cb7671a84571ac0c8d.png) ---

Judging by this screenshot alone it appears as if Perspective isn't installed at all. Did you choose the standard version of Ignition when installing? Could you copy paste the logs from your output console when starting up your Designer (Ctrl + Shift + C)? Should look something like this: ![img 1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/d/6d428d0b8a9820f7fec0ca1f7ce753a70e732d11.png) ---

Seems like Perspective is trying to start but runs into an error: 11:57:11.466 [Designer-Startup] INFO designer.main -- Downloading...

It seems to be a Chromium issue, try deleting the following folder; `C:\Users\[yourname]\.ignition\cache\resources\jxbrowser` Restart the Designer afterwards, it should redownload the necessary dependencies. Also, what Java version are you running? If it isn't the latest version consider updating. You should also post a screenshot of Status \> Logs on your Ignition Gateway, just to see if there are any issues that need to be adressed there. ---

Thanks Fran. Luckily my colleague found a post that dealt with the same issue. We followed their solution steps and by copying the data from my colleague into my folder all is working fine now.
