Thanks Paul. Unfortunately I'm not aware of any 'back end' when using modern pages. Do I need to download page, edit the HTML, then reupload it? Not sure this is solving the bug. I've raised a ticket anyhow which is being investigated. REG:117081516188713

    Thanks Paul. Happy with creating a view, for that to appear in the document library, and to set it as the default. Works a treat. However my concern is that the view I'm selecting in the options for my doc library (preview) webpart is not being returned in the web part. This is the case across multiple sites.

        This started happening to me this week as well on multiple sites. Worked like a charm before.

        If I add a new Doc Lib (prev) webpart and select the view it will show the correct view until the site is edited again.
