[BUG]: blank screen after load design.

Browser & version

Firefox 146

What happened?

I create a workplace followed by a simple application. I saved the design and closed the workspace. When I opened the workspace up followed by the design the canvas was blank The tree shows the widgets ok and Run Preview works. Why can't I see the design screen any more?

This is a new issue

Hi @dgoadby This is unusual, Can you share the screenshot?

[dgoadby]

I have added a couple of screenshots. The first is the screen after loading Victron-mqtt-reader showing the main canvas empty. The second one shows the project running under preview. Other than clicking on preview no other changes were made.

Hi, its likely the mainwindow is on the canvas, just a bit hidden. If you can share your Pyui file, I can fix it for you. You can just rename the extension to .json and share it here

Here is the file, renamed to .json as requested.

Victron-mqtt-reader.json

Hi,
Your minwindow coordinates were in -3000, -4000 or so, I changed that to correctly be viewed in the viewport. You can always manually edit the x, y position from the saved file.

Here's your corrected file. Download and rename the extension to .pyui and load it in your Pyuibuilder

Victron-mqtt-reader1.json

If you still face any issue let me know

Best,
Paul

Thanks for fixing the problem. Any idea how it could have happened?

[PaulleDemon]

Hi, it is likely the main window was accidentally moved away from viewport. I'll work on a feature that would allow you to reset the mainwindow position, so this doesn't arise in the future

Best,
Paul
