Tested on 6.0.2.ER3 (latest we have), now it opens but the error is a red popup bar like the build&deploy, which fades very fast so you can't read the error... nothing in the problems pane so I have no idea if not paying attention that there is an error. Would like to say the initial problem is fixed, but it is not fixed in a way that is useful to the process desiger. Can we raise it to "error in designer needs to be in problems pane"?
Also note that the project still builds and deploys without a problem, essentially allowing defective process to be pushed into runtime.
Please can you tell me the meaning of a deleted variable? I have tried it to reproduce. I have reproduced similar behaviour only when I removed a variable which was used in assignments. The corrupted assignment was removed by Designer vER3. The alert is too short to find a cause of the problem. The message does not say nothing about a solution of this conflict. Please, can you describe the expected behaviour?

We are using the UF notifications in Designer. We will use that and not raise any custom error popups (rest of designer notifications are being converted to UF notifications as well). Designer does not influence the problems panel content so please raise this BZ with a different component as Designer specifically also does not have to do with building the project also.
Hi Tiho, I cannot find any commit which fix this issue, so there is nothing to verify. Please, can you close (state WONTFIX or NOTABUG) this issue instead of transfer it to the MODIFIED state? Thanks a lot.
I am not presented with the notfix or notabug options. sorry. could you please set it to notabug? thanks.
