Disappearing Elements?

Hello;

I am new to site designer and am finding it frustrating (to say the least) - when I add a new page and then add a few elements, they appear on the page - however when I go to preview the page, they all become invisible and I am not able to see them again! (they show as invisible on the preview as well)- they are still "there" and you can see them if you click on the element. I have tried messing with all the settings for what seems like hours with no luck (and yes, they are showing as "visible" on the settings)

Is this a glitch - or is it some Noob thing that I am doing (that might be obvious to someone else) - I tried searching the forums and did not find anything...

Any direction would be helpful

Check your break points. Try narrowing your browser window up and down.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Or alternatively what elements are you inserting that then become invisible?

It may also be helpful to upload your project file so we can have a look. Maybe even take a short video of what you are experiencing so we can better understand the issue.

Did you check the toggle break points in the upper left? I've gotten caught by that. Otherwise share your project file.

It occurs with all the elements I place on the page (Heading/Container/Photo) - it strikes me that this is something related to a template (which I started with and have modified) - the first page of the template works fine but the problem arises when I add additional pages.

In any case, I am simply starting a new project for each of my pages and will combine the files - the workaround is a bit of a drag, but its not the end of the world...

Still, I would have liked to know what went wrong (for the sake of learning)...

So please send the project file so we can help you find out what's wrong or tell us what template you used.

Thanks for the offer - prefer not to send to project (for privacy reasons) - but the template I did start with is Flux (if that helps)
