Navbar loses display settings

Hi,

My navbars are losing their display settings.  Looks like they're reverting 
to first level links, no matter what was set ('child' or whatever).

Not sure what's triggering it, seems like the change from site view to page 
view and back will do it.  Site preview does it too.

Anybody found any fixes for this?

I'm on the latest (9.1) release.

Thanks,

Dave 

Objects placed in a "masterborder" area will appear on all pages that

share the same masterborder and will appear with identical properties.  
So in order for a navbar to have different properties on different 
pages, you would want to place it somewhere other than in a masterborder.

Or... for the sake of accuracy... it should be noted that it could be in 
a masterborder if you are going to make numerous unique masterborders 
for many pages in the site.

More info:
It doesn't lose the setting for every page.
Making navbars 'custom' doesn't necessarily protect them from changing.
I've uninstalled, cleaned the registry and installed again.  Same problem. 
I tried to use NoF without the 9.01 update, but it wouldn't open the site.

Deadline looming for a working model of the site structure.  I'd be very 
grateful for any ideas.

Thanks,

Dave

Maybe I'm misunderstanding NoF completely (haven't used it for a while). 
I'm assuming that each page can have its own navbar display properties 
(apart from the custom option).  Am I right or wrong?
