Views are not saved when I close database
Using Ninox locally on my iMac. I create new views (usually Table views) or modify existing views - both in normal and editor mode. When I close my database and come back in - the views may or may not still be there. In other words - Ninox is not saving my changes to the views (adding new views, adding/removing fields to the views, etc.).
Is there something special I need to do in order to get Ninox to retain my view changes?

Make sure you are in Admin mode (red wrench is active) before you make any changes.

Yeah - I do in Admin mode - but sometimes the changes stay and sometimes do not. I'm not sure what the 'thing' is that prompts the save. Still occurring - cannot determine why.

I have the same problem

Anyone ever found a solution for this? I cannot determine what makes the view changes stick and what does not. I close my database, and when I reopen - some changes may be there and some not. Whole 'new' views are gone, or changes within a view are no longer. Then sometimes they are. I've tried making the changes in Admin mode, or making other 'admin' changes after I create the view. But I cannot determine why it will work sometimes. Frustrating as I have had to recreate views over and over before they magically stick around.

Just make sure you are in admin mode before making changes. I have not had any issues with changes not being saved while in Admin mode.
I think it is a bad UI design that lets you do something but not save the results. I get caught up in making changes and forget admin mode and then lose my changes.

Fred I wish that was the answer. I've tried many times in Admin mode. Doesn't help. I'm on a mac and doing everything locally (not cloud) - not sure if that is where the problem is isolated to or not.

I to use the Mac app. I'm running v3.5.14.
I went back to test and on DBs saved to either iCloud or local I was:
1) able to create a view in NON admin mode and it was saved when I exited the DB and re-entered
2) able to create a view in admin mode and it was saved when I exited the DB and re-entered

I have this problem also. I use the standalone app on the Mac as well.

I have sometimes the same problem too. Even just the name of the view sometimes doesn't get saved. And more: sometimes formula fields don't show immediately the result, but they will after I exit the view and re-open it. I am on Mac App too and saving locally.
