DisplayOption missing in ContentAreaItem in edit mode
Are you using standard content area rendered? Or you have swaped it out with something else?

I found that by using ContentArea.FilteredItems instead of ContentArea.Items in the display template, the display option is available in edit mode as well. I really should have used FilteredItems to begin with but it's a little strange I think but good to know.

Hello everyone
I'm customizing the rendering of content areas in an EPiServer 7.6 MVC using a custom display template that checks for display options on the content area items. This works swimmingly on the web site and when first loading the page in edit mode.
However, when adding a block to the content area or changing the display option on a block, the display option is not set when the content area is rendered. The content area item's RenderingSettings property contains the data-epi-content-display-option with the ID of the display option, but the DisplayOptions property is empty.
Forcing a full page refresh solves the issue, but I'd rather not use that. So my question is, is this a known issue, by design or a hitherto unknown bug that should be reported?
Cheers
