I found a bug where using the "Generate Label" command wipes out the attributes from the field they were generated from if you undo the label creation.

Steps 

1. Execute generate label command on a web feature layer. 

2. Undo the label creation. 

3. The attribute field is then blank. 

I am on the most recent release candidate.

Thanks

Hi Derek, 

I replied to you over email as well but I wanted to post a response here so everyone can see it as well. 

You are correct that is not good behavior. We have ways to mitigate this and I will ask our devs to work on it. For now I suggest deleting your labels rather than using undo. Deleting the labels should keep the values in the table.
