@wei @domhnallohanlon, Opening just one of my projects revealed a number of issues. First, the controls on one of my screens (the second screen) were completely rearranged into the upper left corner in the designer. Incidentally, this is what happens when components are set to visible = false on android devices. Here are screenshots from the the production and staging designers ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/e/bea29aa30f76137769199b764984c95e469943ef.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/1/e121887a8f7b2ad280d1016326438da05feae338.png) The project has 2 screens with a top tab navigator. The first screen only shows part of the navigator. The second screen displays it correctly. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/0/70388fad49052e321be84d2ecb90068dc00a9269.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/a/ead7a983dfbabea659e471ef42bf069cc034538a.png) _removed issue with label click event.

> [@drted](#): > > The second screen has label click event which opens an external website. This link no longer works. I don’t know if this is because of the event not occuring or a problem with the open link block @drted it’s worth mentioning that I installed your app and I tried the link but it is non-functional in the apk itself. This might be a problem not related to upcoming release. ---

@Wei, the top tab navigator screenshots are from the built apk. Obviously the designer issue is not android specific. ---

@domhnallohanlon, It looks like V253 rolled into production. The design view of my screen does not match the component properties. Notice that the list viewer component properties are still correct (Y=207) but the position on the designer screen is wrong. (not WYSIWYG) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/f/6/f6711708ec03173689490fad596febb7444a8a65.png) Here is a screen capture demonstrating that the screen initially renders correctly, then it re-arranges the components into the upper left corner [https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/6/e6ddb01974a71b30c8867340993e21418832b8e1.mp4](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/6/e6ddb01974a71b30c8867340993e21418832b8e1.mp4) Interestingly, if you go frame by frame, you can see the second screen rends correctly, then the second screen actually shows the MAP screen contents, it renders again correclty, then finally it renders everything in the upper left corner. Also, was is it intentional that there is no longer a link to the community or the thunkable documentation? I only see video tutorials. ---

Thanks for flagging this @drted. I took a quick look at my own drag & drop projects but can’t find one with absolute positioning just this minute - can you PM me a link to yours so I can see if I can reproduce this issue? * * * > [@drted](#): > > Notice that the list viewer component properties are still correct (Y=207) Did you set it to `207.9999` yourself or did this happen after the update? * * * > [@drted](#): > > was is it intentional that there is no longer a link to the community or the thunkable documentation? We’ve moved the link to the Community here: [Does the new UI still link to the Community?](http://community.thunkable.com/t/does-the-new-ui-still-link-to-the-community/1040728) The new docs are going to live on their own branch for a while, when move over to having the new UI as an opt-out the docs will be swapped over accordingly. ---

> [@domhnallohanlon](#): > > Did you set it to `207.9999` yourself or did this happen after the update? Alas, I don’t recall the exact component positions for all of the controls on the screen. I did not manually type in 207.9999. But the drag and drop layout assigns all sorts of precise fractional values to component y property (see video below) ---
