We upgraded from Ignition 8.1.7 to 8.1.16 today, and I found that some behavior in Perspective 2.1.16 has changed for views that are embedded in columns in a Perspective table. We are trying to pass in a value from the JSON that is generated from the query, and if I have the **columns[n].render** param set to “ **view** ”, it does not seem to pass in the value from the column. Instead, I have to change **columns[n].render** to “ **auto** ” for it to work.

Can someone confirm if this is some sort of feature change between 8.1.7 and 8.1.16 or if this is a potential bug?

I should also mention that we do not have a **viewParams** value set because, in previous versions, we did not need to add a param as long as we were trying to pass in the value from the table. The only thing we needed to configure was the **value** param on the subview that shows up in the table.

We found another oddity in 8.1.16 related to this same area. We have a different table with a view for the column that will _only_ show up if **render** is set to **view** , whereas other columns in other tables will show the view whether **redner** is set to **auto** or **view**.
