If you add a "Dark Box Text Lower Third" title, it works fine and renders fine.

Save the project, close resolve, reopen resolve and the project ... and the "dark box" (little animation on the left side) is gone ... doesn't show up while editing or render anymore.

(Resolve 17.1.1 Linux)

If I edit the fusion composition for that title and go "fix" it, then it sticks and will work on save/load cycle.
One of the Text element shader got switched from "Text" mode to "Char" mode on the first save.

This seems to be fixed in 7.2.

It doesn't "correct" the ones that were corrupted by previous version, but creating a new one will work fine and will survive save/load cycle.
