Hello,

I came across this in testing views 6.x-3.x-dev version.
I hope by mentioning this here will help with development of Views 3.0

To replicate:
Add Field=>Content Image

For my example Field below is added.
(Content Profile) Content: Profile profile image linked to node
[note: my content profile is called Profile and imagecache preset is called profile, and there is relationship to Content Profile]

Then in the settings select Format: 'profile image linked to node', or any other preset from imagecache already created, then SAVE.
Even though I saved a specific format, the view shows the Generic Files format.
Go back to format settings of field Content: Profile profile image and it shows Generic Files format.
No manner how many times I change the preset and save, it returns to Generic Files format.

If I uninstall and reinstall Views 2.x-2.8 there is no issue with selecting a Format and saving with the same view.

Please let me know if any further information will help troubleshoot.

(sorry, was not sure about correct Component: to set this issue to)

Thanks!

Project: Views (for Drupal 7) » Content Construction Kit (CCK)
Version: 6.x-3.x-dev » 6.x-2.x-dev
Component: Code » Views Integration

This is a case of CCK probably needing to update the option_definition on its class to handle settings that used to be saved automatically but now aren't with the export retooling. This can't be fixed in Views itself since this is a CCK handler.

I'm not sure CCK is ready to fix this since Views 3 is not yet stable enough to really work against.

Thanks for the information and re-directing the issue to the correct queue.
I hope to be able to help with testing when CCK begins to make the changes for Views 3.
