Inline Template Issue in Layout: Empty Column Causes Comment Component to Disappear

Description
An inline template in the layout with an empty column is causing the entire component to not display.

How to replicate

  • Create 2 columns in a table. Let’s say col1 and col2.
  • Add rows with some of the field in one of the columns is empty (null). Let’s say col1 has values, and some of the cells in col2 don’t have anything set.
  • Use a comment component and use that table as the source.
  • Set the message field to something like: “@col1 - @col2
  • the comment component will disappear.

Workaround
Create a col3 as template column: “col1 - col2” then set the message field in the comment component to that new column.
