Answer 2

Can you try incrementing the package version number in the App Manifest and try running the designer again. Also before you increment the package version uninstall the app from the start menu (If you have deployed it previously).

If that doesnt work

Let me know if that works for you. If it does I can probably help you find a more elegant approach to solving this.
