I have recently been getting some very weird issues with SharePoint designer.
Recently when adding workflows, if using a field from "Source" and clicking ok it doesnt add the field and puts a "%%".
For example if I say set Variable Topic to ID - When i choose ID and click ok it doesn't use the fields and adds the two % signs.
I have also noticed that its add its own step at the bottom with ID11 or ID12 (its like auto-incrementing)
Please see this screenshot:
I presume its something to do with the server because all web applications on the server are giving me this issue.
Has anyone experienced this before?
I have also tried clearing the SharePoint designer cache but to no avail.
