I have a project filled with many blocks and two main screens with 500 and 700 blocks. Whenever I have the first screen on focus in the editor, neither live preview or app versions of the app allow other screens to properly work. The content doesn’t load, some blocks don’t work, etc.

After a lot of observation, I discovered it has to do with the “list from text” blocks, which don’t work at all and which I’m using quite a lot.

Any help will be welcome,

Thanks

Hector

I would rather not share my project publicly, can I send it to you over email or any other form?
