The value of a local preset must match the format of the data point (for example, 100.0 for a SNVT_switch.value data point) or the local preset will not work. Workaround: Specify a valid value for the data point or data point field when you create a local preset. (54530)

Workaround: Deselect the new object by clicking anywhere in the Web page, re-select the new object, and then move the layer to the desired location. (54631)
You cannot set size, alignment, cell style, or text wrap properties for entire table rows or columns. Workaround: Select properties for each cell individually. (57594)
