Bug? Wrong error message during compilation

[Sandman]

In my layout I have a button called btnExample and the following designer script:

btnSomethingElse.HorizontalCenter = 50%x

The layout does not contain a view with the name used in the script.

During compilation I get this error:

B4A version: 6.80
Parsing code.    (0.04s)
Compiling code.    (0.28s)
Compiling layouts code.    Error
'=' expected.
Error File: layoutexample.bal

Go to the designer script page to debug this error.

This error message is not correct. Instead it should point out that there is no view named btnSomethingElse.

I'mhaving a similar problem, but i verified all the elements and they are all present with the right names. Still when I try to compile I get this:

B4A Version: 7.80
Parsing code. (0.07s)
Compiling code. (0.27s)
Compiling layouts code. Error
'(' expected.
Error File: login.bal
Go to the designer script page to debug this error.

and I don' have any Scripts

Are you sure?
Even not in the Script - Variant?

I have nothing(nada) in the script variants.

Just today I had the Designer go very weird on me, complaining about strange things. After fighting it for five minutes I gave up and just tried to restart the IDE. That solved the problem. Can you please restart your IDE and see if that makes a difference?

closed everything. rebooted machine (just in case). Still same error. I don't know if it's the compiler or the layout. Should I just create a new one from scratch.

I deleted the layout and recreated it and now it compiles without problem....I guess somehow the layout file was corrupted.
