Excel1265 , SheetView is Cloud-based....meaning, documents you work on are being shared and may be accessed by others. So this feature will not work on Desktop App because Desktop App assumes your are working on a local (version of spreadsheet only on your PC, not in Cloud).

As for the initial question - will try to reproduce.
