Magic Sheets not holding views

Hey everyone,

I've created two magic sheets on the Ion. In each one, I have a view I like and locked them (so I can't accidentally move it around, etc.). On each sheet I have a button that takes me to the other magic sheet. The problem is when I go to the other magic sheet (from 1 to 2 or 2 to 1) via that button, I loose my preferred view that I locked in previously. I have to re-size it again so I can actually read it.

Has anyone else had this problem? Am I missing something? Thanks for your input.

i think it's a known problem that magic sheets don't automatically return to the last view. what you could do is this: record the view as a View (top command in the triangle menu, or through the command line - the Part key is View in this context). and your buttons to change the magic sheet could be a macro saying "Magic Sheet 2 View 1 * " instead of a magic sheet object.

What I did was record the buttons to switch magic sheets as syntax 2/1. This means magic sheet 2 view 1. This will always return you to the right view when selected.
