Bug is VSD object indexing - Post ID...
I notice for some time over several versions of VSD.
If I am making a page with say 5 objects on the page.
after laying the page out if I should decide that I don't want say Object one I delete it. I notice in some instances object two might take on the property settings that were used by the object just deleted or might even change completely including the size type and color of the font.
Anyone have any idea what is going on.
I notice in most cases the changes that happen seem to take on the traits of color and font of the links at the top of the page but the text fields are not links.

Do you have a link to the site?
Also, is it messed up withinn VSD, or do you only see this in a preview or the live site?
Be sure to refresh your browser (CTRL + F5).
You should also get rid of any VSD-created files you don't need anymore. When you start your site in VSD, it creates its own Files folder. You'll see versions of every image/graphic you've added (or edited). So if you've deleted (for example) IMG_14.JPG from your site, go the Files folder and delete it from there as well. Also, don't re-use the VSD Files images. Be sure to insert and or copy/paste from your original images (my_photo.jpg rather than IMG_14.JPG.

Thanks Paintbrush, It is not online yet I did find out it is coming from code I put in the HTML Herder area from the Edit Header area.
Is there another way I can have the Header area just load a HTML file that would be the header for the page instead of pasting that code in the Header Area where it seems to be messing up the text fonts and colors in the rest of the page.

In VSD, the 'edit header' is for code that comes before the body and doesn't display on the page; bits of javascript for example. It has nothing to do with a header section on your page.
To add the html code to your page, use the 'Add HTML' tool and put your code in the body section. Position the HTML box where you want it, make sure the dimensions are correct (object properties), then preview to see if it needs to be tweaked.
If you have something like a slideshow in your header, you'll probably have a script that does need to go in the site header (not the 'layout' header), and you would use the edit header option to insert it.
Whenever you add outside code to VSD, make sure all your <style>, <script> and <div> tags are closed, or it will mess with VSD's styles for your page.
You might want to check out include files: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_includes.asp
There are some VSD users around here who have figured out how to make these work in VSD.
Hellooooo anyone???
Let us know if we're going in the right direction

Trouble is unless the htaccess file is adjusted to allow php execution then the page needs a php extension.
VSD could be improved by allowing a change to the extension and also allow code/script to be added before the HTML opening tag. Just a word to the developers. Responsive VSD I guess is another issue. but possible, maybe a change to the objects and classes, a bit of tweaking says he.
