Mobile Variant not showing

[Songweaver]

I can't seem to find where to activate the Mobile variant on Designer. I must have closed it out somehow because it's not showing up at the top of the work window where it should be. I looked in the 'Websites Variants' option in Utilities but it doesn't show up there either. I don't see where I should add it back to the workspace.
Thanks for your help on this.

SongWeaver it sounds like you've accidentally deleted the mobile variant. First try open an earlier back-up. File / Recent / Back-ups (at the bottom of the dropdown list).

If it's lost for good you'll need to recreate it. Go Website Variants / Website Variants / Create.

Thank you my friend, I am up and running in the right direction with your help. I appreciate this.

hi, I've got the opposite situation, my mobile version is showing on both pc and mobiles and my 'main' version, although fully visible in designer and exported as usual does not show [this only started recently] - could there be a script error somewhere? [Xara Designer Pro XIO 10.1.5.37495 DL x64]

gabriel, any time I have seen this, it has been the design file has been corrupted.
The only other action is to purge your browser cache - press Ctrl+F5. Do this first, you may be lucky.

If unsuccessful, check with some of your backups to see when and where it may have been corrupted.

Xara has made an application called ExpandXar.exe that unpacks the design file and that might work.

If you are totally stumped, ask Xara if it can recover your design fully.
