Why can't I use the new desginer again?

Hey all,
 
I have a flow where I have designed in the new desginer. Then I added it in a solution and then it forced it to use the old designer.
 
Now I have removed the flow from the solution again, but I'm still not able to use the new desginer. How come? :)

    Hey, 
     
    Well since you've added it to a solution you acceptet using connection references. (Those make it easier to get the FLow running in another environment)
    The new designer can't handle them for now. 
     
    To get it working you would need to identify where those connection references are and switch back to normal connections/recreate normale connections
     
    If this solvede your porblem please accept it as solution so others can find it as well. 
    If it helped in any other way consider liking it so we can keep supporting eachother.

    Hey DBO_DV,
     
    Thanks for this - it worked at some point. Now I can use the new desginer again, but I still have to publish the flow before running it.
    How do I remove this? 
    Do I remove the whole solution? :)

    The publish part is part of the new Design.
     
    It's there so that  you don't need to finish to work on your flow in one go. You can save it without having to be done and come back the next day to work on it again .  You only publish it when you're done or you want to test it. 

    The old Designer often reutrned an error when something wasn't filled out. 
     
    Could you please mark an answer as solution? Keeps the Forum active :)
