Since using version 8.0.7 it seems that if you suffer momentary loss of connection to the gateway from the designer, when the connection gets restored the view resets to the last saved view, it keeps happening whether its a 2 minute disconnection or 2 hour. I am running the designer on OSX if that makes any difference. Its pretty frustrating!

This is still a problem on 8.1.1.
