Variables and Expressions Lesson

Good Morning,
I use the variables and expressions lesson from the Learning Center to teach my students about the proper use of variables and expressions. Last November I had no issues with this content but today we discovered as a class that the Creating and Using a Variable Studio exercise was not working as described in the lesson. We were able to download a copy of the document with no problem and then create our variable studio but it did not copy the variables from the studio over to the part studio for the large cup. When I duplicated the part studio the variables worked fine.
I tried this with other documents I had and experienced the same issue. After some trial and error I discovered that in order to get the variable studio to be copied to part studios I already had created I had to at a minimum reload the webpage which refreshed the document. This was tested on various computers in windows and chrome with same same results. The issue is the learning center assignment does not mention having to reload only going back to the TAB. I assume it was some coding done somewhere that does not have the screen fully refresh even though when you click from the variables studio to a part studio that was already created it shows loading studio data. This happened to most of my students today.
Thank you,

Sorry for the trouble, it does appear that we have a regression. I recommend filing a support ticket so that you know when it's fixed.
