[quote name=‘Darius’]I was excited about “View as:” thing in categories. But its settings drop after entering different category or subcategory, it is useless…[/QUOTE]
Darius,
Did you check to make sure the setting “Use the selected layout for current category or search page only” was not checked in Admin > Design > Appearance Settings in the section with the template layouts? If that is checked then the layout chosen in View As will not carry over to the other categories as the customer moves around in the store.
