Is there any way to get the Interface Designer to open in "Expression View" by default? I have to add an additional click now every time I open an interface.

Even weirder is, at least for me, sometimes and/or for some rules it DOES open in "expression view" by default; I just can't figure out when or why.

The behavior Mike described happens when you pass in a parameter to a SAIL component that does not exist. For example:

a!textField(
label: "asdf",
invalid: "fdsa"
)

My observation is that an expression will open in the expression editor when you select it from the rules picker.

Rob, this is correct. If the interface has an error it will open in the expression view by default.
