Hey!

Today, I tried to edit a Data Viewer List Layout (custom), but I was unable to do anything. It wasn’t allowing me to change label texts, wasn’t allowing me to add components, and opened it in the Drag N Drop version.  
Any idea how to do this?  
Thanks!

@codeswept - I don’t think they _are_ editable.

If you look at our tutorials on YouTube, I create a simple layout on an unused screen in the app. I then make changes/updates to the layout and save it as a **new** layout

Does that help you at all?

@domhnallohanlon  
Can you explain how to do this is the Drag & Drop UI. There is no save option for the custom data viewer nor for the screen.
