Bookmarks are not imported when importing a page from another project

I have a project which has buttons with bookmark links on one particular page, pointing to layout grids further down the page.

I imported that page to a new project and the bookmark links in the buttons did not come across. This zip file https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/q3fxkawk ... qso87&dl=1 has both projects. "Bookmark test1" is a WBS file with the links correct in the small buttons down the LH side. "Bookmark test2" is WBS file where all I have done is import the page from test1.

This is the button link in test1

This is the same button link in test2

I am using WBS 19.0.0 of 26th Nov.

Is this a bug or is there something I am not doing right?

regards

Alan

This is not a bug.
The way you have currently set up the bookmarks, they are referring to another page (even though its the current page).
This makes the bookmarks only valid within the context of the project, because the bookmark is a reference to a page which does not exist in the new project.

Not correct:

Correct:

You can make it work by removing the page reference from the bookmark.
To do this, hold the SHIFT key and press 'Select'

For new bookmarks on the same page, do not select a page, but directly select the bookmark from the list.
