Good Morning. In Ignition **8.0.14** , in the **custom methods** of a component, it is not possible to use **underscore** ("\_") in parameter names. If you use underscore, **two parameters** are created. Also, the side buttons for **inserting tags** and **properties** do not appear. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/7/e/7e9b24b5c0334559081491d09af3eef8710adf53.png) Best Regards. ---

Probably worth reporting that bug directly to support. ---

Both of these are known issues that are on the list to fix, just fairly low priority polish items.
